The Only Poll That Matters.

First of all anyone who belives that global warming is actually happening can't have to many brains to begin with. Second anyone who thinks Al Gore should be president have to be some of the stupidest Americans I have ever heard. Al Gore has no reason to be in the news let alone a presidential canidate

First - There is NO scientific debate on iIF global warming is happening. The debate is the casue of it.
Second - Al Gore won the popular vote in 2000. That means you think that over 1/2 of Americans are some of the stupiest people you have ever heard of.
I am sure knowing what we now know about Bush - if the 2000 election was held again Gore would beat Bush in a landslide.
I think YOU are the one that needs brains!
Al Gore won't run because he is too intelligent to get sucked in to trying to fix the mess Bush will leave. He can do just as much,....or more,...as a private citizen, as he could as President. As long as a Democrat is elected in 2008, Al will have a chance to get carbon reductions across the board.
I have a question for all the Al Gore supporters out there... if he was so good, why didn't he win the vote in his "home" state of Tennessee? Hmmm... maybe those Tennesseans know something the rest of the country hasn't figured out yet.
The issue is not the resume. It is what they claim they are going to do and what they have done to back up their retoric. Unfortunately, none of the democrats are doing very well on that score, (Hillary having the lowest score). As a liberal/progressive voter, I will not be waisting my vote on someone I either dissagree with or who has a track record of not supporting those positions that are important to me. Since most of them are in Congress or the Senate right now; I would suggest they do something in the office they are in right now, in the next few months to show me their sincerity.
Media talk, talk, talk - Gore is a good guy but enough already. Can we move on and talk the realistically.
Media wake up, wake, up!
I honestly think that Al Gore (although he would have made an excellent President instead of the goofball we have now) is too smart to want to lead this country. Let's admit it, we are stupid and getting stupider. I wouldn't want that job if you offered 10 billion dollars, especially since the next President will get the debaucle from the Bush years. I sometimes think we are beyond hope.
For decades, tiny Barrow, Alaska, has been largely unknown and unnoticed. But with increasing global activity in the Arctic--especially from oil speculators--things are changing … fast.
