Reader’s view: Don’t blame Obama for high gas prices

I’ve read the Opinion-page pieces blaming our president for high gasoline prices. Since the beginning of the oil industry, Democrats have had very little to do with oil. One major oil company did everything in its power to keep rival oil companies out of the eastern market when our oil fields were being developed. It would seem that company still controls oil worldwide and has no intention of relinquishing its control.
