Texas music legend Willie Nelson has a message for Texans about why you should vote for Kinky--"clean energy and clean government." That's the theme of a 60-second radio ad in which Willie gives us the reasons he's supporting the Kinkster.

The idea that Texans (and Americans in general) should be getting its energy from renewable, stable sources, has been a Kinky campaign theme since the beginning.

"Renewable energy stabilizes prices, creates jobs, reduces pollution - and will bring us new revenue sources that can go directly to our schools," Kinky says. "But our leaders continue to support reliance on dwindling fossil fuels instead of investment in renewable, sustainable technologies. Texas buys more energy than it makes. Why aren't our leaders investing in Texas?"

The radio spot will run more than 6,000 times on more than 150 radio stations throughout Texas. The ad was produced by North Woods Advertising and edited by Austin music and sound design studio Tequila Mockingbird.

"With a little imagination, Texas can lead the nation into energy independence," Nelson says in the ad. "I support Kinky Friedman and I support biodiesel fuel, because they can give us the two things we desperately need in Texas: clean energy and clean government."
