Why him? What does he really stand for? He is envolved alot in global warming, but where does he stand on other issues? He parades around in his big cars and on private planes telling me that I need to cut back. He says that he is carbon nutral because he buys carbon credits from his own company that works with global warming. Who set the standard on what a carbon credit is? In his first book he says that we should do away with the combustion engine. What does he want the economy to do? How does he expect people to live if farmers can't get food to people in the city? Does he want us all to go back to burning candles and if so, wouldn't all that smoke add to the global warming?

Al Gore must run for the presidency in 2008. We need a Democrat that has been against the war from the beginning and didn't shy away from saying so. We need a strong Democrat that will be a true liberal and go after the liberal vote. The party has to forget about going after votes on the right -- this will never work Hillary. I'm a strong Hillary Clinton supporter but at this time she can not win. I hate saying that but it's the truth. Al Gore is our option with Obama as Vice President. How much better could it get?

Smart guy but he had his shot and would not get the same uplift as a new candidate. The diaper is soiled ... let's move on.

Of the various candidates, Al Gore may be able to lead the Democratic party to victory in 2008. We should steal a question from the "Gipper:" "Are you better off today?" and let the electorate answer. Let us examine the State of the Nation after 8 years of a Republican President and many more years of a Republican controlled House & Senate:

1. Do we lead the world in manufacturing technology?
2. Do we make things that other people in other lands (let alone this one) want to buy?
3. Are we applying the strong base of scientific knowledge to problem solving which then leads to weath creation?
4. Are we doing anything of substance to truly improve the longterm security of this country? (i.e., decrease reliance on Mid-East oil, foster more efficient technologies, foster alternative sources of energy, improve educational opportunities for all Americans, etc.).

I think He should run and take Edwards with him again! He should have been President twice! He was cheated out of his rightful place as our leader. If Gore had won we wouldn't be at war, lots of people would have jobs and our country would be way more prosperous and our environment would be much, much cleaner. I can't stand Bush! He makes me ashamed to be an American!!! Al Gore for President! We need you Mr. Gore! PLEASE SAVE OUR COUNTRY!!!

Having just watched "An Inconvenient Truth" and being transfixed - there is not a false moment in this. He is an excellent teacher and there is so much scientific information necessary to our survival made accessible. He is funny and passionate. We need him, separate from the daily insults of the criminal activities in DC and elsewhere - thousands dying in Iraq; the ignorance of the arrogant and deadly oligarchy thinking they're putting something over on all of us (and Congress! and the Courts!) by diverting attention from their crimes by debating gay marriage and flag-burning. Gore is presidential. What he has to offer in the way of experience and knowledge and stature is of such magnitude - maybe he's too good to be our president. So there. Barbara Firger, Oakland, CA

There was nothing liberal in opposing the Iraq War Resolution, unless you think that somehow Dick Clarke, General Zinni, Scott Ritter, General Odom and Bob Graham also became a liberal suddenly.

Nor is it true that Gore is fiery. Just because the media cherrypicked a few lounder-than-usual statement the vast majority of Gore's comments and speeches since 2000 have been calm and disciplined, just like most of the things he said in 2000 and before.

If Gore was a liberal he would have no chance to win in 2008.
It would be time for the Democrats to understand that. The way to the White House is in the middle.
And Gore was and is just there.

He has not changed any of his positions since 2000 -- except his health care proposal but that's because the situation has gotten much worse and we cannot know how much he changed since he did not gave a detailed description of his own version of single-payer system.

Gore himself rejected the notion that he "moved to the left":

Later I ask Gore if he's moved to the left these past six years. After all, he denounced plans for the coming war in Iraq in September 2002, long before his Democrat colleagues, and he now unashamedly attacks corporate special interests. A flash of anger: "No! If you have a renegade band of rightwing extremists who get hold of power, the whole thing goes to the right. But I haven't moved. I'm where I've always been."

Bush and the Republican went to the extreme right, not Gore became more liberal.
