On Energy & Oil: Green energy is the future of Nebraska

Green party candidate Steve Larrick continued to stress the importance of one issue in particular. “I think green energy is the future of Nebraska. I think renewable energy creates a great net gain of energy and that’s what we have in wind and solar. We needed to have been investing in those technologies,” he said.

On War & Peace: Invasion of Iraq was based on false premises

“We need to scale down the dialog of anger toward the rest of the world. I think that the invasion of Iraq was based on false premises,” Larrick declared.

“We have tremendous potential to actually use diplomacy in ways even Ronald Reagan used that we have forgotten now, and the current administration has forgotten,” Kleeb said.

“We should never negotiate with rogue nations without preconditions. You squander the prestige and the power of the American presidency when you do that,” Johanns said.
