Gore says backing Biden isn't 'rocket science'
ATLANTA (AP) — Former Vice President Al Gore, now one of the world's leading climate activists, endorsed Joe Biden’s White House bid on Wednesday, declaring that choosing the presumptive Democratic nominee over President Donald Trump is “not rocket science” and “not a close call.”
“This is the clearest most definitive choice in a national election that the United States of American has ever faced, especially for people who care about the climate,” Gore told The Associated Press.
Gore, 72, didn’t rehash his 2000 presidential election loss to President George W. Bush, by a razor-thin margin tilted partly by third-party progressive Ralph Nader. But Gore alluded to the similar threat Biden faces from some young activists and progressives — including among climate activists — who are lukewarm toward his candidacy.
“If there is any person in America who cares about the climate crisis and has any doubt whatsoever about the importance of voting for Joe Biden this November, I want to emphasize to that person in as strong a way as I possibly can: This is not complicated,” Gore said. “This is not rocket science. This is not a close call.”
