from the Huffington Post by Benjamin R. Barber

...But what about it, Al? Yes, as with so many things in life, getting there means hard and sometimes absurd work -- the price that must be paid for securing success and power. You acknowledged to Bob Herbert that there is no other position "that even approaches that of president in terms of inherent ability to affect the course of events." But how then can you live with your green and good convictions and not run?


Or are you waiting for a popular draft? If so, plenty of Americans are willing drafters.


How many of us will sign this draft statement?


"RUN AL AND I WILL VOTE FOR YOU!"


For now, just send me a "comment" saying "I will sign the Gore draft pledge" with your name and let's see how much support among Huffington Post readers there is for a draft...

(This was posted in editorials last night but seems like lots of folks missed it.)

1. I would like to see Gore run and I think he knows many want him to run.

I am confident that he can decide all on his own. There really is no way to draft him if he does not want to run.

6. If he runs, he definitely has 2 votes in my house

I'll face a tougher decision for the primary if he doesn't.

7. RUN, Al, I VOTED for you already but GOP ate my vote

It's kind of like the "dog ate my homework" except it's true

8. I know he would get three here and probably more from rest of family
