5. No he shouldn't.
Do you realize the criticism he'd get? And it wouldn't be wholly unjustified. Anyway, 1.4 million is just a tiny fraction of what he needs to run.

More importantly, it really wouldn't be right.

6. Actually...
Gore would get about 700K. The prize is being split between Gore and the IPCC.
