Al Gore or John Kerry for Veep?
I smell gravitas with these two great men...what if? I believe it would ignite the convention and carry the fire to November. Who's with me?:bounce:

2. I really don't see either one happening...
They do have gravitas, true...

But they ran for President...

Why would they want to take second place now?

And of course, Gore already did the VP gig.


I don't think so.

I see it as a giant step backwards, honestly.


:shrug:

3. Either would be a good VP but I think only one would be interested.
There are a fair number of circumstantial indicators that might point to Kerry, enough that I am split 50/50 on whether it will be him or Biden.

9. I'm happy with either. I prefer Gore. I think Gore is seen as being robbed in 2000
and Kerry is seen as a loser (although barely).


Most people know that Gore won and was robbed... so I think Obama/Gore would be a blockbuster ticket.

I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO wish Gore would accept, but I don't think he will. And I understand and forgive him... I just wish he would.


I prefer Obama/Gore over Obama/Clinton.
