Is there any chance Gore can be convinced to run?

With today's announcement from Edwards, I'm thinking Gore is really our only shot
to save this country. Is the draft movement still happening? If the message is strong
can he be convinced to get into this thing or is he truly done with politics as
he's been saying all along?

If he's even remotely thinking about it, this is his best chance.

Either Hillary or Obama will make excellent candidates in the general. As would Edwards if he had won.

But...there's just a bit of a thrill knowing that the democratic candidate will definitely be a woman or an African American. It makes me proud to be a democrat!

I'm sorry to say it, as I was hope for the longest time for a Gore candidacy as well, but I really think it's too late for him to jump in mount a successful campaign now.

Would this fit that? I would think so. Do I believe such a grand situation like that would occur? Not betting a single nickel.

John Edward's AG post we're even better. Sorry, Al.

Now....back to reality please.

Time to accept it and be prepared for another Republican in the WH. Take a break, get on with your life. Prepare yourself for the bad times ahead. There's nothing we can do, its out of our hands.

So what we need is a white guy????? White guys have driven this country into the ground!

Be a chump if you want and spend your hard earned money and time to help candidates who, if elected, will hew strictly to a corporate agenda.

Why would you want to spend time and money on a candidate who has no intention of responding to your needs? The first thing any candidate does when they take office is begin raising money for their next election. They're getting tens of millions from private insurance companies, defense contractors and companies that pollute the environment and send jobs overseas. Do you really think they'll jeapordize those tens of millions to support you?

Belieive it if you wish, I don't condemn you for it. But I've been down this road before with these people and I'm not wasting my time or money on them any more.

I'm confused.

are unelectable in a General election. It's sad, but very true.

seems far-fetched. :shrug:

might consider a run? x(

He announced today. There's a thread about it.

And without Edwards, there is zero chance of a brokered Convention.

So I am afraid we will never see Al Gore's inauguration ... :-(

It seems like RFK got into the race pretty late.

We had a sitting president drop out after barely squeaking by in NH, and a primary process that was more elongated and relaxed than the shortened, tense calendar that we have now.

Here is one of the reasons that he won't be involved much in this years race. Al's network is trying to raise a lot of money, he can't afford to be too partisan. This should also put to rest any talk of a draft Gore movement or a run for the White House.





This is in addition to his new partnership in the large Silicon Valley venture capital firm. I think Mr. Gore has moved beyond politics.

He was my first choice but I have always believed him when he said no.

no thanks. I'm fully aware that my candidate isn't perfect, but then I'm not looking for a savior. If you are, try religion.
