No President GORE, No President KERRY - Instead, we get W?!

Albert A. Gore, Jr.


John F. Kerry

I honestly think both Al Gore and John Kerry were two of the Best Presidents the United States will (probably) never have. It's a damn shame.

How could America have turned down TWO of the best possible presidents in this country's history and instead picked...



This guy?!!!

I'm sure you could find numerous better targets than yourself. :nuke: Not that I in any way support violence or guns...I definitely don't...but we can't afford to lose you. :)

6. true -- but then again, he thought that Gore was going to win it!
The nation would really have gotten its money's worth if Al had been allowed to take office. And what do they get instead? Mr. "40% of the time on vacation".

9. He might be "Mr. 40% of the time on vacation", BUT

8. Imagine it.... $400k a year, plus expenses
And you only have to show up for work 15% of the time. And the best part is, you have absolutely no responsibilities or accountablity for anything that goes wrong.
