America is a big country which needs a lot of energy sources. Although it has its own sources, like for example coal, America still has to import from other countries.
This article shows how much oil production in America has increased under Obama's administration, also natural gas production. In other words, according to this report, America became more independent in this way since Obama was elected president.
Even if the USA imports petroleum and other gases, its imports have been falling during the last seven years and its production of natural gases has increased.
I find this article to be an example of propaganda for glorifying in a way President Obama. In almost every paragraph it says that he succeeded in all his projects to gain independence, that his projects and reforms for environmental issues were all a success. It might be true, because there is evidence which shows the changes during the last years, but in a way it is a president's obligation to work for the country he rules. In my opinion if there would've been other president now in office, he would've done also something in relation with this. All country leaders don't want their countries to be dependent on others.
