Reply #55: I too hope Al will run. We need him.

We, the Dems, need him because he'd be the strongest candidate by far. We, the United States of America, need him because things are so f'ed up by the bushies that a strong leader/statesman is called for. Frankly, I think he could do more to advance the cause of combating climate change as President than in any other role, but that's not my judgment to make; it's his.

And I hope he'll decide to run. I think that if he announced, he'd instantly be the front-runner for the nomination AND the general election.

But if he doesn't, then I still repsect that. He doesn't owe me anything.
