Stewart A. Alexander for President
Peace and Freedom Party

April 23, 2007

In March 2006 Stewart A. Alexander introduced an ambitious $75 billion plan to revive the struggling U.S. automobile industry, the plan was introduced as a proposed California- Automobile Industry Partnership. Now Alexander, running as a Peace and Freedom Party candidate for president, wants to create a U.S. – Automobile Industry Partnership to save American jobs and to jump start the U.S. economy.

Similar to his plan that was introduced while running as a candidate for California lieutenant governor, Stewart Alexander is presenting a ten year, $120 billion plan that will put General Motors, Ford and Chrysler on the forefront of manufacturing electric cars and hydrogen vehicles.

Within the next three years Alexander wants the development and manufacturing of electric vehicles throughout the United States. Alexander envisions small commuter cars that will be compact and electric, with seating capacity for four; charging stations would be everywhere, at home, work and in grocery store parking lots.

Debit card - power charging outlets would be in all public facilities and charging outlets would be available for every home and place of employment. Over half of all American homes would have an electric vehicle in their garage by 2015.

Presently there are more than 200 millions vehicles on American highways and vehicle emissions are seriously damaging the ecosystems of our planet. More than 20 percent of the world energy is consumed in the U.S.; Alexander says we must lead into the 21st and 22nd Centuries with smart technologies to protect future generations.

Alexander’s vision is three fold; first- it would be a series of bond proposals to create jobs and opportunities for investments, second- improved technologies would help to clean our air and environment, third- it will help the U.S. automobile industry and working families.

Alexander also notes that a stronger commitment must be made to advance hydrogen fuel; as he states, “I believe this nation must invest in research and science to develop clean burning hydrogen vehicles which will help us to reduce our dependency on oil.

Stewart Alexander recently entered the race for president and is employed as an automobile sales consultant. In the 80’s Alexander worked as a political lobbyist, activist and environmentalist working with the Florida Consumer Action Network in Florida, and the Long Island Citizens Campaign in New York.
