12. Ah, everyone's a comedian.
Yes, we want to make sure NO ONE in the White House believes in evolution, right?

29. The logo is funky.
Your Al Gore 2008 logo is funky. You need to add some unicorns to it and it will rock. ;)

6. Yes, we can.
But I think a Gore/Feingold ticket is a fuckload more likely than another Gore/Leiberman ticket, particularly since Lieberman isn't a Democrat anymore.

17. I really like Russ and would love to see an Edwards/Feingold ticket...
I would love to see what two activists could do for the people of this country with the power of the White House behind them.

Russ has great ideas and is fearless. Edwards has staked out improving the lives of middle class, workers and the poor.

I am sure they would work each day to make things better for all of us, and they would help us root out the corruption of the former Administration that has settled into every nook and cranny of our government.

50. I also like Edwards/Feingold, I don't think Gore has the drive needed
Who ever gets the job is going to have a huge pile of shit to clean up.
I don't think Gore will get in.

That's just my preference. It's time -and there are many qualified people Gore could choose.

32. Diverse as in a woman or an African American?
I'll take Barbara Boxer... or maybe Chris Rock.

I like Obama, but I'm suspicious of his lack of specifics and his pushing of things like "clean coal".

44. How about an African American woman?
I really like Sheila Jackson Lee :)


But as far as your poll, of course I voted yes. I would love to see either of those men in the WH, but both of them on the same ticket is truly a dream ticket.

31. All right, I'm drooling
I don't think it will happen, but that's truly a dream ticket.

However, I'd support a Gore run with anyone (except Lieberman, but I doubt he'd make that same mistake twice)

The teachers in the elementary school where I vote might call the cops when they find me camped out in front of the door the night before the election.

36. ON the condition that BOTH decided to listen to EDWARDS about poverty.
That's my main concern, and since most are deaf to it, I won't vote for ANYONE not committed to us poor folk!!!!

mate but Lieberman. His choice of Leiberman last time was his worst decision ever. My dream ticket is Gore/Clark though.
