Al Gore rules out White House... final, maybe? or is this for real?

[MzNov]

it looks more "final" than the last time he said it. :-(

1. There's no change there in what he's been saying.

As far as I can see.

[sueh]

9. Agreed. Gore Supporters, don't give up. I'm not.

2. Our Loss

we'll never have the president who was supposed to be.

3. All I Know Is...

We're truly in bad shape if he doesn't enter the race at some point.

We'll either end up with Hillary or another repub administration.

Al Gore is the only person who could bring stability to this country, and give a chance at preserving it's future. Without him, I'm not very confident about our prospects going forward for the next generation.

5. I agree

If Gore doesn't run, We the People and in one huge hell of an un-doable mess! :scared:

Please run Al Gore! Please!

[MzNov]

7. I still will have hope... in spite of his statement this time

"I have no intention of running for the White House."

He is the only one who can bring this country back.

4. It's way, way too early for a seasoned pro like Gore to get mixed up

in all the hype, bullshit, name calling, backstabbing a year before the first primary vote is even cast.

6. I hope you are right

Maybe he is waiting until the last 6 months before the election I can only hope.

:kick:

12. If Gore believes the DLC-Clinton machine is too powerful for him to win the

nomination than why would he bother...it's not worth all the time, money and amazing amount of bullshit & backstabbing.

However, if my man, who is indeed his own man, Howard Dean head of the DNC has any pull, and he will, (I think I'll make another donation to the DNC)... Who knows, maybe Gore can come in after everyones beat up on each other, most of the money's used up and the public is so tired of month's of the same old Dem faces bickering and bullshiting...

Which will leave plenty of time left if the political climate is right for Gore to step in and win the nomination...Again, still a long, long ways to go!

[MzNov]

8. yep, but I wish he's quit saying he has no intention... dammit

he could say, I haven't decided !


blah blah blah

I'm still hoping that in Sept. he'll change his mind.

[Graybeard]

10. He hasn't issued the "Sherman statement"...

...and that has to be viewed as positive. It's early in the game, all of the MSM horse race hype not withstanding. Is there an Oscar coming his way? Perhaps a Nobel prize? Lots to look forward to.

11. We have an Al Gore group here in DU for anyone interested

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=260

We discuss meetups, strategies for drafting Al Gore, news on Al Gore. You are all welcome to join our conversations.

And I agree with one of the above post by GreenTea, that Al Gore is too seasoned of a politician to get caught up in the fray of this early, way too early presidential election wannabees. He can bide his time and rack up the international and national support without throwing his hat in the ring.

Please join us over in the Al Gore group.
