Field & Stream interviews both presidential candidates to get their views on outdoor sports, conservation, and more.
LICATA: Why should American sportsmen vote for you?
SENATOR OBAMA: I think that when it comes to conservation, when it comes to management of public lands,when it comes to access to public lands, when it comes to encouraging access to private lands through various incentives, my agenda I think is going to be one that is most likely to ensure that we have the great outdoors available to the next generation. I don't think there are going to be a lot of your readers who look at my agenda and say that's not the right way to go. What may hold them back is their concern about gun rights, and I think that if they have confidence that their gun rights are going to be protected, and I'm respectful of the traditions of hunting and self-defense, then I'm going to be their best choice.

Interesting. I so agreee
Interesting.
I so agreee with Obama, "we're not going to drill our way out of these problems."
I so dislike McCain's use of "exploitation". California and Florida don't want offshore drilling, but he wants to "induce" them into changing. States rights, states rights,but not.
