Former vice president Gore likely to endorse a candidate before Democratic primaries begin
Former Vice President Al Gore says he will probably endorse 2008 Democratic presidential candidates. And it will not necessarily be Hillary Rodham Clinton, the wife of his former boss, former President Bill Clinton. "Uh...no," the former vice president told 02138 magazine when asked if he feels "some obligation" to endorse the senator from New York. "I have friendships with her and with other candidates, and they're all on equal footing at this point as far as I'm concerned," he said. Gore said several candidates had called and visited him to seek advice. He declined to name them. In the interview, Gore again declined to completely rule out a presidential run next year but said "it doesn't feel right at this point." He also said he doubted he would ever completely rule out a return to politics in the future.

Al Gore, James Hansen and civil disobedience
What does it mean when one of the top scientific leaders ringing the alarm on global warming, along with a top political leader, both suggest, in so many words, nonviolent direct action (or civil disobedience) to confront the challenge of climate change?

Al Gore on our mind
It's been a while since we've heard Al Gore buzz. Expect more to come in the next six weeks as the Nobel prize campaign wraps up (the winner is announced on October 12). If Gore wins it, watch for buzz to explode again.

Al Gore to hit the Emmy red carpet
Now, I hear Gore is expected to be at the Primetime Emmy Awards on Sept. 16. He has good reason to attend. Current TV, the cable television network Gore launched with business man Joel Hyatt about two years ago, is up for an Outstanding Creative Achievement in Interactive Television Emmy. Does this mean if Current wins, Gore will be the one onstage making the acceptance speech? His peeps aren't saying.

Draft Gore Movement Nets 1,000 NH Signatures
In a press release, the group's statewide coordinator said "The results of our petition drive indicate that there is a strong undercurrent of support for Al Gore in New Hampshire which is not reflected accurately in polls or in the opinions of visiting out-of-state media pundits."
