In Episode 38 of The Energy Question, host David Blackmon interviews former Texas Democratic Congressman Martin Frost. Mr. Frost currently serves on the Board of Advisors for the Council for a Secure America, the focus of this discussion.
CSA was founded on the premise that American energy independence through the production of liquid fuels served as the underpinning for U.S. security. This energy independence, and the strategic alliance with Israel, strengthen America’s mutual security and global standing.
