Governor Richardson is asking 13 million people what they think -- you included.

This week is the Governor's turn in the YouTube You Choose Spotlight, which gives him access to the 13 million visitors YouTube gets each month.

For his Spotlight, the Governor wanted to focus on his call for a new energy revolution and finally breaking our addiction to foreign oil. There is no candidate as committed to this issue as Bill Richardson, and to prove it, he is asking people across the country to share their stories about taking energy conservation to a whole new level and finding innovative ideas for alternative energy.

As a special twist, Governor Richardson will visit whichever person or community has the most compelling idea or the best story of going above and beyond in their efforts to fight global warming and break our oil addiction. Check out the video, and if you or someone you know has a brilliant new alternative energy idea they are working on, or if they are taking conservation to a new level, please make a submission. Who knows? The next big energy idea might be in your own backyard.

Click here to see Bill Richardson's YouTube spotlight video inviting you to send in your best ideas to help America chart a new energy future.

And this isn't your only chance to be front and center in the Governor's campaign to take the White House.

July 23, 2007 is the CNN/YouTube presidential debate and people across the country are being invited to submit video questions to the candidates.

This is your chance to really dig deep -- to ask the Governor or any of the other candidates anything you want. If you have a good question, and a video camera, submit it now at: http://www.youtube.com/debates. If you have technical questions, just give our internet team a call at 505-982-2291 and we'll walk you through the process.

We've got to have people like you involved if we're really going to change the direction of this country.

Sincerely,
Dave Contarino
Campaign Manager
Richardson for President
