With only 4 weeks until the election, the presidential race is certainly heating up. Both campaigns have made energy policy a priority, and now we’ll have a chance to hear specifics straight from the horse’s (or elephant’s!) mouth.

In a two-part presidential forum series, the Renewable Fuels Association is partnering with the popular rural and agricultural radio program AgriTalk to get each campaign’s take on ethanol and its role in this nation’s energy future.

Today, October 7, beginning at 11:30 a.m Eastern/10:30 a.m. Central, Heather Zichal, the top energy, environmental, and agricultural advisor to Senator Barack Obama’s campaign, will join AgriTalk host Mike Adams to discuss Senator Obama’s views on ethanol.

The RFA is continuing to work with Senator McCain’s campaign to determine a convenient time for a representative to discuss the Republican nominee’s stance on ethanol and energy. As soon as a time is announced, you’ll see it here on GoodFuels.

To find out where you can tune in to hear the interview or to listen in a live stream online, visit AgriTalk.

Be sure to tune in! This should be exciting to hear what the candidates think specifically about ethanol, particularly on the very day of the second presidential debate.
