2. Does anybody know if this is going to be covered
by anybody other than CSPAN? Broadcasted live, that is.

9. Yes, live at noon EST on CSPAN - but call the Fable News Networks...
...and demand that they cover it too.

4. Thanks for the early morning chuckle
3rd term....I like it.

We should push for an amendment to allow Gore to run/serve a 3rd term.

47. Well, term limits were not put into place until the Republicans couldn't
get anyone elected for president while Rosevelt was our president. That is why they only can serve two terms.

After the last five years of hell with Bush, anything is possible . . . right or wrong.

8. Perfect timing, too. Someday soon, most Americans will realize what this
nation has lost all because the corporate media made them believe that Republicans were competent.

25. Hoping some day the Americans
as a whole will learn not to trust corporate media..there aren't any Edward R Murrows, Walter Cronkites, or Bernie Shaws reporting the news today.

Thank you, President Gore, for coming out with your speech on Martin Luther King Day!

19. Yes! Yes! What Dinger said - come back and post your experience
How was the crowd? What was it like before and after? What happened that did not get reported by the corporate media? Is he as sexy in person as he is on TV?

Except that I'll be leaving as soon as my husband gets out of the bathroom, so I can dry my hair and hide away things the puppy could get into.

Cspan always repeats the stuff that people call and request - and my dialing finger is itchy already.

34. I hope he is tough talking - we need some morale booster
It will be good to see a dem stand up, instead of seeing Clinton posing with Bush Senior and Murtha defending himself.

It was a great relief to here Al Gore state the facts, the truth aloud to the world! I will no longer be in fear of my own government - no here in America!

Al Gore speaks for this American. I hope he runs in 2008. Quite frankly, we need him NOW!
