I see a couple of store front websites for foundations but they don't look active. Why hasn't he run for any office since he was in the Senate?

5. My Great Grandfather Suffered from Gravel...
He eventually died from it.

Or as we say nowadays...

Kidney Stones.

That said, seeing Mr. Gravel in the Dem debate reminded me of Ross Perot's running mate back in '92.

I pray to my God every day that Al Gore will get back into this thing.

6. maybe he was trying to peacefully retire, but felt that he was needed now more than ever
Maybe he feels that he is answering a call.
