61. He didn't tell me directly but I can guarantee it and be wrong;)


Gore can't stop anything alone, except through indirect means. As president, he can have a huge impact
here and abroad. He's been globe trotting, so to speak, on this crusade.

He wrote a best seller.

He made it into a great film.

He won the Academy Award for his film.

He's hosting/organizing the summer concerts, huge exposure to the youth vote (which turned out quite nicely in 2004 despite the disinfo).

He'll win the Nobel Prize in November/early December.

If that isn't the world's best set up, not that he preplanned it (and if he did, all the more reason to nominate/elect him).

I saw him speak in DC 1/16/2006 - he rocked Constitution Hall (how appropriate). Multiple standing ovations, very in sync with the crowd (I was sitting next to Byron York, to whom my partner said, "Why aren't you standing up!" during the seven to ten standing ovations).

Someone rightly said, he deserves better. But when you know what he knows, you can't relax, particularly if you have children.

Come bug me if your remember should this not happen. If it does, that doesn't mean I really knew in the rationalist sense though;)
