1. I would switch from Edwards to Gore... but I prefer if Gore does not run
I think politics hampers what he is doing and what he is doing is more important than being president.

2. I Agree
On the part about what Gore is doing being more important. On the part about switching. I am conflicted. It would be a tough call so I can't answer the poll

5. I kinda agree with that...
I have lots of disagreements with Bill Clinton but the smartest thing he said as he left the White House, "I hope you realize you have more power as a private citizen than I did as president".

P.S. Not the exact quote but something to that effect... :)

Not as things stand at this moment.
But I am fairly convinced he isn't going to run, so I haven't given it serious thought.

4. Since I haven't made up my mind which Democratic candidate I will vote for in the primaries
I cannot take this poll

However, if Gore annouces, that will be the candidate I will vote for in the primaries

11. I think it's a legitimate (& interesting) question, actually.
In the list "Obama, Edwards" the name "Clinton" is conspicuous in its absence.

I can think of all sorts of reasons why you might have omitted Clinton (my guess is that you're actual interest is in the result of a Clinton/Gore race?) but I don't know for sure, and I think asking is a natural thing to so.

12. Of course.
However, some frame questions to get the answer they want, in this case wishful thinking that Gore wouldn't affect Hillary and would only draw on her opponents' support and that, of course, would happen right after monkeys flew out of Clinton's arse.
