So, I Haven't Yet Watched The New Al Gore Videos
What's the general consensus. Mainly stuff he's said before, or a little bit more vitriol in his rhetoric. He has given powerful speeches in the past, and they didn't necessarily mean anything.

Are these different? Am I going to watch them and come to the conclusion that his entering the race is more a possibility today than last week?

5. my impression is they are an attempt to start a dialog on the internets
to get other people to respond and state plainly what they think

6. I Plan To Watch Them
Plainly what I think is that we're Fucked unless you run, Mr. Gore.

I'm sure I'll agree with most of what he has to say.

2. No vitriol detected whatsoever...
Does sound vaguely like a campaign platform though...

3. Very short and to the point. Lots of good comments on all 3 of them
at the site. But no replies back from Gore as of this morn.

and that's without me telling him anything that was posted about it on DU or even following things as closely as I do. :D

7. Agree. Very interesting timing considering all of the talk of him running.
I saw them as throwing the Gore supporters a bone; asking them to be patient.
