Reply #57: Do you know him personally? BTW I was for Al Gore in '88, too... [View All]

given your alliance with the DLC it's fascinating to see this post from you.

Especially when you say how close you are to him. I did shake his hand at a book signing after "Selection 2000" when he and Tipper were promoting the book of Photographs Tipper took and they wrote together. There was a long line waiting to see them outide one of our last "independent book stores" left in NC...to see him.

I have it autographed and I hope he runs but he will only do it if he knows he has enough support not to drag himself through another long campaign to be "trashed" by whore media once again.

If he does it..it will only be when his approval numbers can't be denied and he can be drafted unanimously at the Convention. He needs the support and money before the Convention, though...because the way it's done these days the delegates are already decided before Convention unless we Progressives stage a RUMPUS.

Since you haven't seemed to be a Progressive Dem...I wonder why you suddenly have a renewed interest in Gore. :shrug:
