He could still be a dentist too, but he'd have to go back to school for 6 or 7 years first.

President of what?

Manbearpigland?

I agree with TheMysteriousStranger, but I have to admit, reading that brought a smile to my face.

Not going to happen, I do think Al will be Secretary of State Under a President Obama.

Yeah... good luck with that...

I like to think Al Gore hears these white knight scenarios and thinks "biatch please - been there, did that."

Here, let me clear up some common misperceptions:

1) Al Gore will not be the Democratic nominee. No matter what.
2) There will be no Obama/Clinton ticket
3) There will be no Clinton/Obama ticket

Thank you.

Yep, that sure worked out well for Adlai the last time they tried this...

unlikely is putting it mildly. The nominee will be the candidate who gets the most pledged delegates, and the supers will fall in line behind that. Even if it really does come down to one or two delegates between them, its going to end up being one of the two contenders. Putting Al Gore in, when he wasn't even in the primary would be a very bad move i think, would be seen as anti-democratic.

Will not. Could not. Never.

Yeah, after all of this talk about how royally ticked off voters would be if the supers don't go the same way as the pledged delegates, imagine how ticked they'd be if they wound up picking some guy who got exactly zero pledged delegates, even if that guy is Al Gore.

This.

Why yes he could, he will get the chance to run again in 2012 or 2016 if he wants to. Not going to happen this election though.

lock box

who the heck wants that goober in office for four years


go obama

I_Approve_Of_This_Message: Times eleventy billion.

It's going to be Obama.

I think it will Barack Obama/Max Cleland Max Cleland former Senator from Georgia triple amputee & Vietnam war hero. Who the Right "Swift Boated".

Yes. Sure.

And Jessica Alba might walk through my door any minute, hungry for cock.

Why did my mind immediately flash to a TV Mystery series called "Barry and Wheels" starring Barack and Max.

Obama will win Texas....my magic 8 ball told me so.

end of story.

I was going to college in GA when that whole Max Cleland thing went down, and since I wasn't voting in that state, I was only paying marginal attention (probably like the average actual voter). I tend to think that Cleland hurt himself by constantly running campaign ads that seemed to convey no other message than, "Vote for me, I'm a war hero and I lost three limbs," if he talked about policy, it didn't stick in my mind. He might have helped himself some if he had given the voters actual reasons other than losing limbs in a war why they should vote for him. I mean, when I was little, I had a friend who's dad was missing a leg courtesy of a Vietnam land mine, but just because he was a war hero with a purple heart doesn't mean he should have been elected to anything.

Al Gore could still wants to be President relevant

FTFY Subby

Never going to happen.

He could also be almost normal if he would stay on his meds!!

I think if nothing else, this election season has shown how stupid most pundits are. From idiotic stories like this one, to their inability to understand delegate math, they've proved how ignorant they are.

Paedophile_Deluxe: I think if nothing else, this election season has shown how stupid most pundits are. From idiotic stories like this one, to their inability to understand delegate math, they've proved how ignorant they are.

How are they supposed to understand delegate math? It's not like they can understand math, period.

Supreme Court Justice Al Gore.

Being that I used to be a Republican, turned independent (that votes pretty consistently Democrat) because of all the stupid shiat they have pulling lately...

I can tell you that I could never vote for that hack, Al Gore...

Why didn't Bush 41 run again, being that Perot ate 19% into his numbers...

or you could say Bush ate 30-something into Perot's numbers...

And I could be the Virgin Mary and have the Seed of God in my womb, but again, that would be a pretty big farking miracle.

Bob_Laublaw: but he'd have to go back to school for 6 or 7 years first.

He doesn't have a very good record for finishing post graduate programs.

Law School -> FAIL
Divinity School -> FAIL

Hmm...Secretary of State Al Gore? Well, that would one way of having people think nostalgically of Condoleezza Rice: "Gee, remember when the State Department was run by a humble, lovable genius? Now that it's a monomaniacal ego freak who thinks he's Jesus squared, we can't even read the paper without projectile vomiting..."
/It's okay, folks--she'll be vice president, and Gore will go back to scaring small children and old people...

borg: Not going to happen, I do think Al will be Secretary of State Under a President Obama.

why would he not be secretary of the interior? i don't see him as a gifted or experienced diplomat, but a defender of the environment... sure.

I don't see Gore as a likely Secretary of State. Maybe Secretary of the Interior or Head of the Environmental Protection Agency, he could do better with one of those spots.

1st comment in here says the most. Sure, Gore could somehow overcome the fact that he doesn't want to be president anymore and still end up becoming president, but not this election. Let's read more articles by pundits who support politicians who aren't politicians anymore. That's a real useful job.

Revenge is a dish best served without warming. I hope he goes completely serial, starting with everybody in America who has quoted the Manbearpig episode. Ha! Ha! Technically I'm not in America. I'm Super Serial and safe as House's chance of another season if Peter Laurie wants one. Some celebrities should get together and pound the living daylights out of Parker and Stone. They're brilliant when they haven't got celebrities stuck in their craw. Get over it guys!

They could always nominate Jimmy Carter for a second term, too.

Hell, why not bring back Dukakis.

If you don't vote for Obama, you're a racist!

Referencing Manbearpig implies virginity. Except when I do it.

Dr.Zom: Supreme Court Justice Al Gore.

I like the cut of your jib.

Ground_Hog: Will not. Could not. Never.

Well he was elected President in 2000.

I stopped reading at Eleanor Clift.

16 years of dems in the white house ... i could live with that.

brantgoose: Revenge is a dish best served without global warming.

ftfy

Gore knows that if he ran for office, his Global Warming pyramid scheme would be placed under more scrutiny. He's making a killing in his third "I won't quit fighting until I'm dead" cause.

/I guess he already died once so he no longer cares about scary words in music.

/I guess he died a second time as he no longer vows the end of tobacco, which is how he became rich in the first place.

/He'll die again this decade and find a new lifelong cause to fight against (once Global Warming is not as profitable)

Mr. Gore is having way too much fun outside the cage. No sane person would want to go back.

This sort of scenario is just what the RNC is hoping for:

Democrats blow off "democracy" and some shady characters in a back room start playing "Lets Make a Deal".
