Mr Gore is mentoring each of us as to what "We the People ..." means. It is just that simple.

[understandinglife]

We have the connectedness technology - it's called the internet.

We have the connectedness tools - from YouTube to numerous social networking sites.

We have the mechanisms - and the folk are deploying those mechanisms in numerous States.

Yes, we are being mentored by Mr Gore.

If "We the People ..." want a 'more perfect union';

if "We the People ..." want leadership from those who will be caring stewards of our fragile planet;

if "We the People ..." want to persist and expand the potential of humanity ...

then we need to act accordingly.

"We the People ..." control our destiny.

If "We the People ..." want Mr Gore to be our President, we must demonstrate we are cognizant of the cost and willing to pay them, ourselves.

"We the People ..." is not a passive stance, is not a default to others to care for our society.

If "We the People ..." want Mr Gore to be our President ... if we want ANY ethical, empathetic, nurturing person to be our President, we must prove it and that means way more than maybe voting and then moaning or, worse, doing nothing during the interval between elections.

Mr Gore ... message received.

Mr Gore ... you are already running a very Presidential campaign.

Thank you,
Bob

1. We mentored Gore

I know activists who edumucated (sic) our former VP while he was still in office.

As for the Internet, sorry, but we were doing just fine connecting ourselves before the telecommunications act shut down freenets. You have no idea what we lost.

6. Suffering a little self-esteem poisoning these days?

Today is the first time I've seen you around these parts in a while. And you took a similar self-important tone on an ER/DU thread today. Get over yourself, please. (We've heard it all before: "Me, me, me, me, me... ad nauseum.")

Wish I had some way to send you 50 cents so you could call someone (Al, perhaps) who really cares how important you are.

Thanks, UL, for another excellent thread. I remain hopeful that what we are witnessing is indeed the first Presidential campaign worthy of the 21st century ... and considerably above what has come before.

Al Gore is Al Gore.
He was mentored at his daddy's and mama's knees.
That's plenty good enough for me.

I think we are and we are going to be the ones who ensure it to be so.

Thank you,
Bob

7. So, Gore was ignorant and so are we?

And you know people who enlightened him and are therefor enlightened yourself? Since we have no idea, and since you have been so blessed as to be enlightened by the aforementioned "activists", why don't you enlighten us too?

12. One minor correction.

It has been primarily AlGore.org which is building ground forces around the country. We've been doing it for about a year, while DraftGore.com has been primarily engaged in Net-based activity.

Not meant as a detraction from a woderful piece. Thank you!

13. Very much appreciate your adding that important information to this thread.

Thank you!!

18. I hate to get all Sociological about this

I love Gore - have for a long time and was quite proud to vote for him - but I DO NOT GET why so many on this forum are so slow to understand that HE'S NOT RUNNING.

Damn.

I hate to get all Sociological about this but this collective trembling in the corner waiting for the elder white statesman to take the lead and save us from the scary woman and the black man - it's unseemly.
