Gas spiked in 2000
after Bill Clinton sent Bill Richardson to Saudi Arabia in 1999 to ask them to drop crude production because prices were "too low".

I don't remember much of a spike in the last half of 2000. It jumped to around $1.25 early and stayed there most of the year.Originally posted by Benny The Mule View PostGas spiked in 2000 and again in 2004...it really doesn't matter (who's) in there.
I don't think it matters so much who is in there as who is running for office.
If you don't think the OPEC group want a democrat in office, well you may be a little naive. I've noticed a spike in gas prices every election year that a republican is running for reelection, or a republican was favored to win.
They have supported the democrat in the last 6 elections that I can remember clearly at my feeble age of 50. My guess as to why? Because they don't respect/fear a US with a weak foreign policy president.Last edited by john tenney; 04-08-2008, 06:47 AM.

Benny, I appreciate you posting the retail gasoline prices. It doesn't really matter who is in office. Looks like gas went up about 48% during Clinton's administration and well over 100% in Bush's. Now during the Nixon republican years I can remember it being less than $.40 a gallon. But then the Arabs got together and placed an oil embargo that caused major price increases, lines at the pump, rationing, etc. Ahhh, the good old days.

Well, I guess that makes the presidential choice easy. No Bush, no Democrats, what's that leave us? Nader? Hehe. Just kidding. But he might require all those camels have seatbelts installed.
