Obama Discusses Record-High Gas Prices With AAA

March 28, 2012 – 1:31 am

On Thursday, AAA had the opportunity to sit down with President Obama, following his speech on energy issues in Cushing, Oklahoma, to discuss the topic of rising oil and gasoline prices.

Gasoline prices across the United States continue to rise. On Tuesday the current national average price for a gallon of regular self-serve gasoline is $3.90. This price is six cents more expensive than one week ago, and 27 cents more expensive than one month ago. The national average price at the pump has now risen for 18 consecutive days and has only declined on three of the past 60 days.

The President outlined the two key issues that have pressured prices higher this year: tensions with Iran and increasing global demand for crude oil. Bearish developments for oil prices on both of these issues last week were seen as the primary stories pressuring prices lower.
