No the price of oil will not drop no matter who is elected president.

I'd like him to do it. Hillary would never be taken seriously by the middle east and would fail as usual and blame it on being a woman. The only reason we're in this war now is because Dick Cheney has been scheming to take over the middle east for years.Dickwad gets to bail out of Vietnam and send everyone else's kids to die for his wallet.Ran with Bush on a christian values platform too. Way to go bible belt.

OY! Here we go again! Newsboy, the President of the Untied States has very little to do with the cost of oil, wars or not. Supply and demand dictate the cost of oil worldwide. The "emerging economies" of China and India over the past several years have more to do with it than ANYTHING else.And you stated, "the raging wars" in Iraq and Afghanistan...They're not raging wars, dude. Our troops have scuffles here and there with those who want to fight. That's not raging, World Wars One and Two were raging. The U.S. Civil War was raging. And you are raging.

the president cant tell anyone to lower the price of oil.he has some long therm plans that by the time they take any effect gas will be 6 bucks a gallon.What is happening right now is called market manipulation, Something hillary has said for the last 12 months that if she made it into office she would start an investigation into the market manipulation.the worlds (according to economists) oil consumption has only raised .003% in the last 10 years so there is no need for the oil to do what it has done.obamas long term plans are the same as hillarys, only hilary is the one candidate that wants to open an inverstigation IMMEDIATELY as to why we are being gouged when suplly and demand has changed except by .003%Anyone watch tv last week where bush was in saudi and they showed him talking to the oil barrens? he asked them to up their production. They looked at him and said, "WHy, we have plenty of reserves and demand hasnt raised so why should we build more reserves that are being used now"See why hillary wants to investigate this? oil companies have made the most profit in the last few years than in any past time.its called market manipulation and something obama seems to NOT want to do.Of course, he has accepted all that pac money and the 230 thousand in donation from exxon. so it would stand to reason he doesnt want to shake their boat.

I'd say YES. Actually anybody who can help us to get rid of Oil Price Hike could be an American hero.Check this outollar can get its strength back and Oil price will drop sharply if:1- Iraq war ends and troops come back home, which Obama has already promised and McCain wants it continued for another 100 years.2- Bush gets out of the White House.3- McCain can not succeed to win the election.***********************************Bush = Pro War and Pro Rich People’s Profit Bush = Pro Oil Price Increase and Pro HalliburtonBush’s Rating is = 30% McCain = Bush

THIS IS THE DOPIEST THING I'VE EVER READOil prices are controlled in the futures pits. Obama would have as much control over that as he would the price of Microsoft's stock. The only way to drop oil prices is to up the margin requirements on speculators. If that were done, the price would drop overnight.

Absolutely not. He will push Congress to increase taxes on oil companies and oil. These increases must be passed on to the consumer. Some of his stated position on the Middle East will no doubt make some of those nations nervous. What thier reactions will be is hard to tell, but the normal reaction would be for them to hold or reduce production. I doubt he will win however.

He want's to end the war in Iraq and negotiate with Iran. Will this be helpful in reducing the cost of oil?Despite all the recent talk of soaring prices at the pump, political and economic pundits rarely mention the impact of war and political instability in the Middle East on the skyrocketing price of oil. There is strong evidence, however, that the heightened price of energy is a direct consequence of the destabilizing wars and geopolitical insecurity in the region. These include not only the raging wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, but also the threat of a looming war against Iran. The record of soaring oil prices shows that anytime there is a renewed U.S. military threat against Iran, fuel prices move up several notches. Not long ago the price of oil was about a quarter of what it is today. But soon after the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq the price of oil began to escalate in tandem with the escalation of war and political turbulence in the Middle East. The fact that the rise in the price of oil has followed the heightened insecurity in oil markets is neither accidental nor a simple correlation; it represents a causality that runs from the heightened insecurity in oil markets to the inflated price of energy. The war also contributes to the escalation of fuel cost in indirect ways; for example, by plunging the U.S. ever deeper into debt and depreciating the dollar. As oil is priced largely in U.S. dollars, oil exporting countries ask for more dollars per barrel of oil as the dollar loses value. Not only are the raging wars in the Middle East responsible for energy price inflation, they are also responsible for price inflation of many other commodities, especially grains and other foodstuff, whose production and transportation depend on fuel. According to the World Bank, food prices have more than doubled over the past three years. The price of rice, the staple for billions of Asians, is up 147% over the past year alone. The mounting food prices have caused hunger and deadly violence in many countries, including Haiti, Egypt, Thailand, Indonesia, Senegal, and Malaysia. This shows that the disastrous consequences of U.S. wars of choice go beyond Iraq, Afghanistan, and the United States. The skyrocketing costs of fuel and food tend to plunge many of the world economies into a 1970s-style stagflation (a combination of stagnation and inflation) that threatens many lives and/or livelihoods around the globe.
