Jimmy Carter war der Pr\u00e4sident, der das Thema &#8222;Energie-Unabh\u00e4ngigkeit&#8220; erkannt hat, und die Republikaner haben ihn seither daf\u00fcr denunziert. Heute sagte <a href=\"http:\/\/thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com\/2008\/10\/29\/palins-energy-speech\/?hp\">Palin in Ohio<\/a>: \u201cIt\u2019s been 30 years\u2019 worth of failed energy policies in Washington, 30 years where we\u2019ve had opportunities to become less reliant on foreign sources, and 30 years of failure in that area,\u201d Ms. Palin said. \u201cWe must steer far clear of the errors and false assumptions that have marked the energy policies of nearly 20 Congresses and seven presidents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jimmy Carter hat im Jahr 1979 eine Rede gehalten, mit der er sein politisches Todesurteil unterschrieb. Sie wurde als die &#8222;Malaise&#8220;-Rede denunziert, weil er darin die amerikanische &#8222;Krise des Selbstvertrauens&#8220; analysierte.<\/p>\n<p>Ronald Reagan gewann die folgende Wahl mit einem gute-Laune-Programm, das eigentlich ein Hohn auf alle konservativen Werte war. Reagan ermutigte Amerika, weiter auf Pump zu leben und zu konsumieren. Er fing damit an, die enormen Handelsdefizite zu verharmlosen, die zu Amerikas sp\u00e4terer Abh\u00e4ngigkeit von Asien und dem Nahen Osten gef\u00fchrt haben &#8211; w\u00e4hrend Carter eine klassisch konservative Wende zum Wesentlichen und zur uramerikanischen Tugend der &#8222;self-reliance&#8220; vorgeschlagen hatte.<\/p>\n<p>Der politische Kern von Carters Analyse war: Die Energie-Abh\u00e4ngigkeit der USA von den OPEC-L\u00e4ndern ist geopolitisch ruin\u00f6s und muss beendet werden &#8211; durch Einsparungen, neue Energiequellen und Effizienz. Wie recht er doch hatte! (Heute sagen es alle!)<\/p>\n<p>Von den Republikanern wurde Carter damals denunziert, er wolle den american way of life aufgeben. Die Republikaner hatten sich auf die Seite der Konsumgesellschaft gestellt, in der sich die Menschen schlichtweg berechtigt f\u00fchlen, den Wohlstand zur Not auf Pump zu finanzieren. Das konservativ zu nennen, ist unhaltbar.<\/p>\n<p>Heute ist es Konsens, dass &#8222;energy dependence&#8220; eines der Kardinalprobleme der USA ist (und des ganzen Westens, bei uns blo\u00df mehr mit Blick auf Ru\u00dfland als Nahost).<\/p>\n<p>Carters prophetische Rede ist eine traurige Lekt\u00fcre: Jahrzehnte sind verplempert worden.<\/p>\n<p>Hier Ausz\u00fcge:<\/p>\n<p>The symptoms of this crisis of the American spirit are all around us. For the first time in the history of our country a majority of our people believe that the next 5 years will be worse than the past 5 years. Two-thirds of our people do not even vote. The productivity of American workers is actually dropping, and the willingness of Americans to save for the future has fallen below that of all other people in the Western world.<\/p>\n<p>As you know, there is a growing disrespect for government and for churches and for schools, the news media, and other institutions. This is not a message of happiness or reassurance, but it is the truth and it is a warning.<\/p>\n<p>These changes did not happen overnight. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We remember when the phrase &#8222;sound as a dollar&#8220; was an expression of absolute dependability, until 10 years of inflation began to shrink our dollar and our savings. We believed that our Nation&#8217;s re sources were limitless until 1973, when we had to face a growing dependence on foreign oil.<\/p>\n<p>These wounds are still very deep. They have never been healed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>First of all, we must face the truth, and then we can change our course. We simply must have faith in each other, faith in our ability to govern ourselves, and faith in the future of this Nation. Restoring that faith and that confidence to America is now the most important task we face. It is a true challenge of this generation of Americans.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We know the strength of America. We are strong. We can regain our unity. We can regain our confidence. We are the heirs of generations who survived threats much more powerful and awesome than those that challenge us now. Our fathers and mothers were strong men and women who shaped a new society during the Great Depression, who fought world wars, and who carved out a new charter of peace for the world.<\/p>\n<p>We ourselves and the same Americans who just 10 years ago put a man on the Moon. We are the generation that dedicated our society to the pursuit of human rights and equality. And we are the generation that will win the war on the energy problem and in that process rebuild the unity and confidence of America.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Energy will be the immediate test of our ability to unite this Nation, and it can also be the standard around which we rally. On the battlefield of energy we can win for our Nation a new confidence, and we can seize control again of our common destiny.<\/p>\n<p>In little more than two decades we&#8217;ve gone from a position of energy independence to one in which almost half the oil we use comes from foreign countries, at prices that are going through the roof. Our excessive dependence on OPEC has already taken a tremendous tool on our economy and our people. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This intolerable dependence on foreign oil threatens our economic independence and the very security of our Nation.<\/p>\n<p>The energy crisis is real. It is worldwide. It is a clear and present danger to our Nation. These are facts and we simply must face them.<\/p>\n<p>Mehr <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rightwingnews.com\/speeches\/carter.php\">hier<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nein, tut sie nat\u00fcrlich nicht.
