Not driving much lately. Each time I buy, it's cheaper. A president can do some things to lower prices but won't have much effect. What lowers prices is people using less gas. Also, speculators that control 70% of the cost of a barrel of oil have decided they are nervous about the threat of recession (that they helped create).
