In the crowded Democratic field that is Hilary, Obama, Edwards, Vilsack, etc - one name is conspicuously missing.

A name that speaks eloquently of conviction, dedication to purpose, integrity, leadership.

Al Gore.

It's time visit the "Draft Al Gore" website, at http://www.draftgore.com/ , & add your name to the rolls.

Then, tell your friends - and tell them to tell their friends. Let's let Al know that he is wanted & needed at this perilous time in our country's history.

I've already been: $10.08 (meager, I know, but I'm a broke filmmaker.)

I pray everyday that this man runs.

A broke filmmaker?

With minor exceptions, is there any other kind? ;D

Re: It's time to Draft Al Gore (none / 0)

he has said over and over he does not plan to run. If he doesn't want the job or is not willing to work for it, why bother? People have been trying to draft Gore for over a year and I think it is a waste of time. He is doing very important work and making a difference. Let him do what he is good at.

Gore had the election stolen from him, yet remained silent. The final nail in our election's coffin was placed that election. America will NOT be saved in an election booth. The politicians are beyond the law. Our Founding Fathers suggested what we need to do.

Tell me what I can do. I'll be there. The field is so disspointing or in the case of Edwards, so distant from reality, that Gore turns out to be the only candidate that could push this country forward.

Hillary? Sorry, money or not, she scares me. I see the old debutant still trying to outdue the sorority girls. The clue for me was that Bill had to go out and get blowjobs in order to get some sexual satisfaction. Is this a frigid woman? What a dangerous combination: the US presidency and frigidity. I would vote for Gwen Ifil before Hillary any day. Any chance she would run?
