starting up emacs after creating another user

Hi Everyone: I created another user on my local fedora machine called git. I also
gave the git user a password and that works. ( thanks to pablo and jpollard for all
of their great help on another thread ).

Then I did su git and logged in as that user. Then I did cd .ssh and did

touch authorized_keys

to make an empty authorized_keys file. All that worked. But I then try to start up an emacs session so I do

emacs authorized_keys

and I get "No protocol specified".
Display :0.0 unavilable, simulating -nw

I then copied my .bashrc from my home directory to the git home directory to see if
that would help and the startup when I do "su git" is now identical to my regular user
( so I know the .bashrc is being used. but now I'm longer prompted for the password ? ) but still when I try to start up emacs I get that same error. Any help is appreciated. Thanks a lot.
