Emilie Boyles: "[What] is your perspective on energy independence, particularly on the Keystone XL pipeline, and what needs to happen to make sure that American energy is used in America?"
Ron Paul: "We don't have to be dependent on foreign imports... If we had the proper policy in this country where it was deregulated we were allowed to drill, allowed to put pipelines through our country, allow alternative sources to come out, don't favor one energy source over another... we would have enough energy. I would not worry about it one bit..."
Emilie Boyles: "And should the Keystone get approved?"
Ron Paul: "Absolutely. What's distressing to me about that is one person in our country, even if he is the president, can make or break something that important. Where does he get this much power? If I'm president I'm not going to act like a King and pretend I have that much power. He should get out of the way and let the market deal with this and let the States deal with this."
