He wouldn't have to go that far at all. The country with the largest oil 
reserves in the world is just next door... Canada.  We already supply 
over 30% of the US demand for imported oil, and plan to pump more. We 
already supply 95% of the Natural Gas imports.

As long as oil stays above US $30 a barrel, it is economical to convert 
our oil sands into oil, and adding the 'tar sands' to our reserves makes 
us number one.

So its not some Arab sheik who is going to buy out the French vineyards, 
it is some lumberjack or cowboy from Edmonton going to buy out the 
American sports franchises

And last time you Americans tried to make a move on us, you got your 
butts kicked and Washington burned for the audacity of it all. <grin>
