There is no way that Vilsack thinks he could be President..been there tried that... pitiful response... I think he just wants to get his wife elected to Congress and beat King in that NW Iowa District.. It is equally important that SC support those efforts while still pointing out the hypocrisy of the Farm Bureau in not wanting to protect Iowa's Black Gold Resources for future Generations... Perhaps we should always call the Farm Bureau the "Corporate Farmer Insurance and Lobbying Corp."

I think a big part of the problem is that Secretary Vilsack finds it premature and politically discomfiting to acknowledge that he still wants to be President Vilsack someday (ideally, succeeding Mr Obama in 2017).

In case anyone is interested, this is apparently the Iowa Farm Bureau response to those recent soil erosion reports.

And speaking of those reports, I saw Secretary Vilsack's very evasive responses to press questions about them on IOWA PRESS on IPTV on Sunday. I think Secretary Vilsack would benefit from considering that old and true adage that you can't change what you refuse to acknowledge.
