Alert: Draft Gore movement to be featured on NPR's "All Things Considered"
Advertisements [?]
possibly as early as tomorrow morning. I don't know the exact date or time but I did want to make others aware that this was going to be aired in the near future. I found out from Dylan Malone from AlGore.org (one of the Draft Gore websites). Dylan is a friend of ours and he called to tell me that he had finished an interview with a reporter from "All Things Considered" earlier this afternoon. He wasn't sure when the segment would air but it could be as soon as either tomorrow or early next week. The segment is about the growing, people-driven Draft Gore movement. Dylan said he talked about the success AlGore.org has been having with their Draft Al Gore meetups that are springing up around the world.

fwiw, Dylan is a personal friend of the Gore family. He was a guest of the Gore family at the Democratic Convention in L.A. when Al accepted the nomination for president. The Malone and Gore families met when Dylan and his wife were seeking medical help for their son Ian. The hospital had suggested to the Malones that they either adopt their sick child out or take him home to die. Mr. Gore helped the family by bringing their plight to the media's attention at their request. In fact, Gore spoke about Ian that night in his acceptance speech. The story of baby Ian, the Malones and the Gores can be found at: http://babyian.com/story.html
