Why Wasn’t T. Boone Pickens chosen by Obama?

—I would like to see some good informative inputs—

As we know, Obama has chosen Dr. Steven Chu to be the Minister of Energy in the administration. I’ve noticed that Chu is big on Nuclear Power, something that John McCain was a supporter of; but, Obama was not supportive of. Obama as we all know was a big pusher for Wind, Solar, and bio-fuels. Also we know that T. Boone Pickens is also a big pusher for these Alternative Energies. Boone Pickens is working to create wind farms and solar farms and to make them competitive and profitable.

My question is, why didn’t Obama choose a man who was more in touch with Obama’s aspirations and is a prominent businessman to be the one in charge of "selling" alternative energies to the American public. Instead of a physicist who, although is instrumental in developing cleaner energy sources, is not a businessman and may have difficulty making Alternative energies cost-effective and profitable to export.

Obviously the reason is that T. Boone did pay his taxes. As we’ve all seen most of Obama’s picks for anything have not paid their taxes properly.

    simple; Dr. Steven Chi has in-depth knowledge on the subject matter. Pic kens has some knowledge on the issue, but not as much as Dr. Chi.
