his intelligence combined with his anger have led him to where he is today.
He's fearless and effective. He has to know that he has to stay there, though.

6. He's not self-conscious anymore... |
|
..but then, it's not about him. When the passion is there, the ego is left behind.

That's fucking brilliant. When the focus is so pinpointed, everything else melts away.

I didn't say anything about mad. Passion is a wonderful emotion without which, art would not exist. It's the essence of a person...hardly anger.

To tell us to rise up against this administration. To tell us it is in our hands. America's hands. Not congress or the courts, but in our hands.

15. Gore had nothing to do with NAFTA.. that's Poppy Bush's Doctrine |
|
which was an agreement cobbled together by his administration, signed and then passed on to Clinton to implment. What did Gore have to with this agreement? Nothing.

16. YES, he won the debate on Larry King against Perot |
|
Perot, the only one the MSM would allow airtime opposing NAFTA. Gore slaughtered the cooky grampa and it was cinched in the public's mind as politicians cashed in big.
If BushI were re-elected NAFTA would not have passed cuz Dems would have opposed. Clinton/Gore were corporatists who took the place of a real Democrat.

I don't doubt Gore's motives. He is, after all, the Honorable Al Gore! :)
I do maybe question the motives of upi402 - starting this poll.
It kind of implies that maybe Gore might be speaking out for his own personal benefit.
Gore has been making excellent speeches on a regular basis since 2000.
There are a hundred other ways (and easier ways) for him to make a living.
