Gen. Wesley Clark, Growth Energy, provided the keynote speech this morning at the Fuel Ethanol Workshop. He gave a very “rouse the troops” speech which shows his ability to motivate our military troops when he was in active duty.

I would characterize the theme of his remarks as targeting the importance of ethanol for our national security. He also hammers home the idea that the whole issue of food vs. fuel is nonsense and that imported foreign oil is distorting our foreign policy.
