18. Unfortunately, he's not going to run. Gore knows...

that he is not likely to beat Clinton for the nomination and he knows if he jumps in and loses he will likely lose the real world cache he has built up over these past few years. He will go from amazing Statesman to "just another candidate".

I kind of Blame the Democratic party for not really getting him into the race. The insider power elite could have, but they didn't. Gore knows that without the political power structure and the media, you are dead meat.

It's better for him to be above the fray.
