I can't help to think how different things would be if he had been president.

One, he does have good ideas for helping to protect our most precious investement, the Earth.
Two, maybe we wouldn't be so reliant on gas if a President would encourage alternative ways to run cars..and not just fill their pockets.
Three, what can you name specifically that he has done that is stupid? Not just hearsay from the media about election time?
I'm not looking at the parties here, I am looking at an individual...Go out and rent 'Inconvient Truths'..

Lore, he is probably more 'on top' of the environment than anyone else in the two major parties.

Yes. He is still the most experienced candidate out there. And I feel he has a lot of good ideas for dealing with the major issues facing us in a realistic manner.

I think it would have been good for the country to have a simple, hard working guy who used to work the fields in the summer in Tennessee, someone who used to walk behind the plow horses, cutting furrows in the soil and planting tobacco like his ancestors...wait, Al spent his summers in the luxury suites of that opulent old hotel waited on hand and foot by servants paid for by his wealthy family...never mind.
No, I don't think so. There were a lot of things I liked about former President Clinton, one thing I didn't like was his choice of a vice -prez.

hey arcticchick, how many terrorist attacks went unprosecuted while he was VP??
you know if you do a litle research, you will see that gore and clinton tried to get security m,easures in place against terrorism, but a republican dominated congress drug their feet on every prposal, until after September 11th, 2001 when they were caught with their pants down pointing fingers at clinton, laughing at him for being too paranoid about terrorists!!
the funy thing is, all these people who don't think Gore is qualified are going to be the same people who rush out a vote for someone who's only qualitifcations that even get him close to be as experienced as Gore, is a position of mayor!!

No, he needs to be on top of things where the world is concerned with the environment. Do we want to be here 9 years from now...lets clean up our world before it's too late.

No he should not run again. Nothing against him it is just the same as Kerry. Running a presidential champagne is brutal humiliating experience, if you lose it will probably work against them, as voters will be immune to these people after all that. However just because Al Gore brought the enviorment to thee attention of th American people dos not mean he is the only one capable of doing anything. Any and all can take up the cause.

Yeap, things would be different, we would all have to walk, cause we couldnt afford the gas for vehicles, much less buy a vehicle. I think Islam would shortly become the nations religion cause he wouldnt stand against the terrorists, he would talk them into surrender, ours not theirs.
Gore is a rube and should fade away into history like Carter and Ford, two more do nothings.

Al Gore has turned so far left since he was Senator and VP, it would be scary to think of him as the leader of the largest superpower in the world.

I sure hope so I wold love to see the hypocrite run and then lose again. Being from Tennessee I remember when he was our senator, how he played to the religious right, to the tobacco farmers to the pro-life crowd and how he had a rating of being 68% conservative. what a hypocrite.

AGAIN? AGAIN? I, for one, don't think he should have ever run for office in the first place........
(But you are right about one thing, as bad as the idiot Bush has been, we just have to sit back and imagine just how much WORSE things would have been if Gore had just gotten a few hundred more votes in Florida......... God Almighty, THAT, is one scary thought........)

9/11 still would have happened.
We still would be in a war. He would have no choice. If he did not go into Iraq in 2003 he would have to do it by 2004. He would have had the same info as Bush.
The truth is the truth....

I suppose some city or county job....but not President. I fear to think how things might have been if he had been elected President.
