Not trying to be a downer, but always believe in having a plan B.

If Al wins it will spur momentum for a draft or for the campaign if he annouces.

But what happens if he doesn't win. I still think he can annouce even though there won't be the same momentum.

But if he doesn't win the Nobel and doesn't announce, can the draft movement maintain the same momentum?

you don't want to hear it but

3rd party June 2008

or VP starting the day he gives a Sherman

If Al don't give a sherman, nothing ends

Could he know he won, so he is going overseas? Is the cat out of the bag?(like some award shows, do they let the winner know a day or two in advance, and the phone call is just for show???)(sort of like OJ supposedly knew verdict the night before cuz it was leaked to him)

Dream on.

I think it can. People all over this country have realized that he's the one we need. This has never been about the Nobel... or the Oscar or the Emmy (or even the Tony for modern interpretive dance). I don't think another award, won or lost, will change that.

It is about having the best person for the job of President. His experiences and achievements over the last 7 years alone has cemented him as the one for the job.
He's like a fine wine, getting better with age. There simply is no one else with his credentials - why bother looking elsewhere.

If he doesn't run this time, he will only continue to get better and become more desirable in my book. If he doesn't want to get in for 2008, then let me be the first to say: AL GORE in 2012!! :coolwink:

Gore '12 is not anything to get excited about. Wine is better aged, but if he doesn't run now, I don't see him ever running again. Now is the time, America is the place. WE NEED AL GORE NOW!

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: AL GORE '08 :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Doesn't matter to me if he wins or not, I still want him to be pres. and I think he is going to a UN meeting and giving a speech, we will see though.

Clearly that is the ideal outcome. Geeze, I was merely trying to show my continued support no matter what his decision.

For that matter, we thought we needed him in 2000. Now we know we need him in 2008. If we don't get him this time around, imagine 2012 and tell me we won't need him even worse then. :dripple:

Or how about this, Al Gore in 2008 and 2012!
We'll need him for 2 terms of course.
Unless we can change the laws to give him the job permanently!! :Y: :coolwink:

If the Dems nominate Hillary chances are that the GOP will win the presidency. Now if the Republican nominee is Rudy, chances are the country will be in even worse shape than it is now.

In 2012 none of the current Dem canidates will be viable. Any Dem Senators or Governors will have limited appeal. At that point I think the Democratic party will have no other option than to beg Gore to run.

Winning or not winning the Nobel shouldn't make any difference in AL'S decision to run or not. He should win the Nobel unless it's rigged. I will be very disappointed if he doesn't, but will continue to support him in whatever he does.

Sometimes I wish he had not even been nominated - or that the news of it had not been publicized by the nominator. And that's because there's way too much emphasis being placed on how this might impact his candidacy. He's the most qualified, and clearest, best choice for the Presidency, Nobel or no Nobel. Whatever happens, he gets the Nobility prize - his nobility is a result of his humanity and humility. And win or no win, Al Gore could not be a better human being or leader.

We're not stopping our draft unless he stops us! :clap:

And the draft should continue anyhow...because Unity08 is calling June08
(and the VP if the others are no-go would probably be July08)

As I don't know most of the other candidates, I can't say what their qualifications are for the Nobel, however, knowing all the other Presidential candidates who have a real shot at winning, there is only one choice and that is Al Gore

No matter what party line he heads.

Some of us are not interested in Gore running with a fringe party, since he is a lifelong Democrat, so perhaps you would be better served in hoping for someone who may be interested in that type of candidacy. Like Nader, Paul, etc.? Gore has never stated a desire to run with a fringe party, just the Democratic party.

There is no more "democratic" party

Some of us want a better America

You can go shove Ron Paul or Nader (and Gore has stated he is tired of POLITICS).
He has stated he doesn't like the system.
What better than to run INDEPENDENT...

You obviously have no idea what Unity08 is about-it is just a vessel for change, that WILL be on all 50 states ballots.

Mario Cuomo (Ever hear of Mario?He should have been President in 1992 not the a-hole who was elected who ruined the party)
Mario is one of the big people behind it, along with Hamilton Jordan(Remember him? Last time a Democrat was in the White House, Ham was his chief of staff...a REAL Democrat (Jimmy Carter).

Some of us don't want Hillary or other phony dems
Did you know HIllary grew up in college being a Barry Goldwater groupie/disciple and as such, never changed (NO ONE ever gets more liberal after College)

Some of us want change in America, not the crap Harry Reid and Evan Bayh and Joe LIeberman (Are YOU a Joe fan???) He is NOT a real democrat, though he caucus' with him

Show me where on this site it says support anyone but Al Gore?

And a Gore/Bloomberg ticket would win 70 percent of the vote (and Bloomy is alot more liberal than Hillary/Haircut Boy or Bill Clinton is for that matter)

What type of Democrat gets rid of affirmative action? Bill did.
WE can do better than Hillary. Hell, Rudy is more liberal than Hillary is.(NOT that I would vote for him).

So you insult me and millions of others who don't want Hillary to win.
I will only vote for her if Al is her VP. She is a traitor.

And go shove Terry "Goofy Grin" McAuliffe...do you know that :wtf: will be HIllary's main person in the white house? He alreadyhas annointed HIllary the winner...you call him a democrat? Makes me vomit. :spikey:

Why the love for HIllary and Bill Clinton?

YOU (Al Gore fan) should go to Hillary's web site and support her. I would rather vomit.She and Bill never were democrats, and they both used Al Gore and spit him out. He would be retiring as President shortly if they actually cared about the party.

You have crossed the line with your personal attack. Goodbye and good luck.

I want to send my heart felt congratulations to the entire Gore family. I think it is so wonderful that his educational and research efforts were rewarded. There are many ways to lead in this world, and I feel that regardless of his future decisions about politics, his contribution to this world has been incredibly honorable and duly noted.

I met his wife Tipper at a function once and had my picture taken with her, a group picture. She is a lovely woman. Unfortunately, after the Bush administration destroyed my life, drove me batty, broke into my home and ruined every friendship I've ever had with lies and mistrust, I discovered that my treasured picture of myself with Tipper and friends had been stolen.

It is amazing to me that the Bush Administration was stupid enough to turn a friend into an enemy with me. What kind of idiots would do that unless they were hiding something?

Thank you so much and God Bless the Gore's and the state of Tennessee!

I was looking at another website and someone complained about the electric bills Gore pays on his mansion in Tennessee.

I have seen what the electric companies can do to your home. they can do a number on your home and your bills.

He really should check into his bills and make sure they are not destroying his reputation with false info from the electric companies.

Thats kind of old news. It took Gore years to change the policy to be able to put solar panels up in his neighborhood which he finally did and he runs his office out of his home which is totally different than a normal home.

But the right loves to put up what he spends.

:rolleyes: Geez, this is the third time in the past 14 hours that someone has posted this nonsense again. No offense to you, Cathy, but it seems that the desperate Gore-haters are back to grasping at straws with the house diversion.

First of all, what is the definition of a "mansion"? Gore has a large home. He needs one. He's a busy man doing important work. I don't fault him for that. As far has his energy bills, square foot for square foot his are much less than mine because he's taken many actions to reduce his carbon footprint. Our electric bills can be compared because I live in the same area as Gore. I don't know what else he can do at this point that he hasn't done. He's even gotten policy change enacted in his neighborhood so that he could install solar panels. We don't have windmills in Nashville so for some things he's going to have to juice up with a little coal derived energy.

Even people trying to lose weight have to eat some of the very things they're trying to avoid to stay alive.

Being Green doesn't mean you have to live on "Survivor Island". If we all were just more conscientious about our choices and more aware of our wastefulness it would have a huge impact on our environment.
