Will Al Gore endorse anybody in the primaries?
I know alot of dems would love to hear his viewpoint.
(in the interest of full disclosure)I don't think he'll run.
I think he should endorse somebody.

I am not asking who he will, I am asking if he will.

I'd say its 75% against him endorsing anybody.
Thats a shame.What do you think would stop him?

1. A soon as he endorsed Dean, Dean deflated in the polls
Not that it was Gore's fault, but maybe Gore will be more careful making that call this time.

2. I dunno but Gore is looking good tonight at the Emmy Award PreShows.
He and Joel Hyatt have been interviewed on both E and TV Guide Channel. Should be coming up again when football ends and CBS starts their Countdown to the Emmys.
:hi:

5. I think he won't endorse.
If he did endorse, I think we can rule out Sam Brownback.

But he won't endorse because he's going to enter the race himself.

7. I doubt it. I think he's stepped out of the political arena.
Edited on Sun Sep-16-07 09:41 PM by AZBlue
His arena is now global warming - unless there's a candidate that clearly stands out in that area, he's not going to endorse.

10. We begin
on October 8 in California to collect 500 signatures in each of 54 congressional districts to get his name on the ballot. We have until December 4, and hopefully by then he'll have pocketed an Emmy and a Nobel Peace Prize.

11. Why would you go to all that trouble...
...for someone who is not showing the desire to be president? I don't get it. I want someone with enough passion to SEE that our country moves forward and changes...Not someone who has to be persuaded to run in the final hour. Am I missing something here??? :shrug:
