did Al Gore not want some of the votes recounted (such as the Military absentee votes)?

Gabriel...thanks for the video.

Unfortunately, it reminds me alot of the 9/11 conspiracy videos.

Sorry.

Gore tried to steal the election himself.

Al Gore wanted the votes recounted in heavily democratic districts with democratic officials presiding behind closed doors. Maybe a few slippery hands would have altered just enough ballots (or re-interpreted their meaning) for Gore to win.

I've never known why he caved, but there was a lot of pressure for him to give in and let the country move on.

The biggest problem with that pseudo-election was that, before election day, the Republicans running the election in Florida removed tens of thousands of Democrats from the voter lists.

They were turned away at the polls and were not allowed to cast ballots at all.

There was also the "Butterfly" ballot, where people intending to vote for Gore mistakenly voted for Buchanan.

There were a lot of other "irregularities" (people cheating), such as poll workers who refused to give people replacement ballots for goofed-up ballots (you're supposed to get a fresh ballot when you mess up, and another, and another -- after that, it's up to the poll worker to decide if you're really trying, or are just tying up the polls -- people were being refused a first).

Since there wasn't truly an election, the recount is less relevant. What we need is "do overs" when there's been massive tampering -- and trying each person involved in preventing a fair election for treason, and letting them rot in prison for at least 30 years.

The European banksters that own this country and control the money through the privately owned Federal Reserve, Inc call the shots, not puppet Al Gore.
The Iraq war was planned out years in advance by the PNAC in a paper called "Rebuilding Amerca's Defenses". (Also check out the 'Clean Break' paper)

Clinton didn't want to invade Iraq and rejected the PNAC proposal when he was in office.(I guess he was satisfied just signing over all Americas national parks to the UN as biospheres).

Anyway, Bush's brother JEB was on the PNAC committee and they knew if W got in as the LEADER, the Iraq War was a sure thing.

So why deal with Al Gore at all (fellow freemason or not)?

Plus how could W resist those no-bid contracts for Carlyle??

The whole 2000 election hinged on Florida, who was governor of Florida?
That's right Jeb Bush.

But don't worry- there's no conspiracy- it's all just a coincidence. Like Jeb and Georges brother Marvin Bush being in charge of security at the WTC on 9/11/2001- again just a crazy coincidence so you don't have to do any of your own research..

Hope this helps. Check out the PNAC website link>>>

He also wanted recounts in certain counties. Not all the counties. Just the ones he though would garner more votes for him which didn't. He tried to block all the military votes, not just the ones that were mailed from ships that were at sea that came in a few hours late. There were days of court arguments that were televised. Gore lost.

The votes in Florida were recounted by three independent groups and Gore came out ahead in every recount. All of the recounts included the military absentee votes...as did the original count. You might want to turn off the Fox News and do a little reading.

YOU TURNED DOWN A BBC DOCUMENTARY VIDEO? Yeah the BBC a bunch of "conspiracy nuts". GET A CLUE FOOL!

human beings say that because of the fact Gore certainly had the main votes, yet Bush had the main electoral votes. If the incredible court docket hadn't stopped the recounts, it is obtainable that Gore could have taken Florida, and for that reason had greater electoral votes. So technically, the incredible court docket stopped the recounts on the element while George Bush had Florida.

the worse precedent set by 2000 wasn't the courts stepping in, it was politicians who refuse to concede for 3 weeks.

the fact is that the President is elected by Electoral College Votes, not the popular Vote, you want it changed get the amendment passed, until then blow it out your corn hole.

Al Gore is a sore loser who has become an alarmist, now waving the banner of junk science, Global climate change is a naturally occurring event, anyone who has ever seen 'Before the Dinosaurs' on Discovery know North America Used to be a swamp, and then during the Ice Ages(yes ages that means it got warm between them kids) we had mile high glaciers over all of Canada and most of the US above Iowa. I don't know about but being a Minnesotan, I'm kinda thankful I'm not under that. Now I'm not Al Gore, but it seems to me that the Human population was non existent before the Dinos, and wasn't all that huge during the Ice Ages, so clearly we didn't cause or end them. and what of the Mini-Ice age in the 1700's lead to the creation of German Beer

Because the whole thing was a fraud. Since the vote was certified by Katherine Harris, the Sec of State, Gore had no standing to sue.

Note also that he only wanted part of the state recounted. This is completely not fair. Either you count them all or not at all.

The "wants" of Al Gore and of GW Bush are irrevalent. It is within and stated clearly in the Florida State Constitution that ALL votes MUST be recounted when the count is within 1%. So ALL votes in Florida HAD to be recounted per the states' constitution. The Supreme Court trampled all over the states' constitution and that is unacceptable.

After the election and Florida counted it's votes, and after the one mandatory recount, Bush had won.

I guess if you recount enough, you will eventually come out ahead.

Looking at blank ballots and saying that a voter intended to vote for Gore is all you need to know.
