I want Al Gore to be President right now.
Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 01:58 AM by Melodybe
If we have to throw this whole mafia in jail, I want Gore to be President.

He knew 20 years ago that we should be paying attention to global warming, he was the politician that heard about the internet and thought, "hey, this might be a good idea, I think I'll give them the money to try that out," current TV is the news of the future.

Al Gore was the ONLY politician I saw during the run up to Iraq, that was talking about Bushco's Orwellian way with language. He definately worked wonders getting those sick and dying people out of NO and into Tennessee hospitals.

I want Al Gore to be my president, I think that we should demand a total recall, a special election, to install Al Gore as our legitimate president.

He really is the best man for the job, hell, it is his job.

Imagine how HE feels knowing he really did win?

6. Hey, I'd work for him for room and some food and nothing more ...
... for the remainder of my life -- that is how much I respect him.

I suspect many would make the same statement.


Peace.

7. Or Wes Clark.
Or John Edwards.

Or John Kerry.

Hell, either of them would have done an overwhelmingly better job than what we have in the White House now.

9. Any would be good, but I really just think that Al is the rightful
president.

While it should have been Kerry's as well, 2000 is when they took over, and Al has been out there speaking up since the beginning.

10. Wishful thinking is not productive
Wishful thinking will not make Al Gore president today or yesterday or tomorrow. If you really think he would be a good president (and he certainly has potential), you need to first persuade him into forming an exploratory committee in late 2007. In order to do that you need to make him think in 2006 about running in 2008.

12. We don't have that long.
Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 02:31 AM by Melodybe
if this shit is still going on in two years the world is going to be a flamy ball of Nuclear war, I really don't want that, so I am seriously thinking of ways to install Gore.

If Bush goes down the whole structure goes with him, all of it.

It is time to impeach, indict, imprison.

16. Yes, exactly. But impeachment, indictment, etc. won't make Al Gore Pres.

11. I'm seriously considering becoming a vocal advocate for him for 08
Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 02:23 AM by Tiggeroshii
...even if he doesn't run

It would be a worthy cause, in my eyes.

13. I know what you mean.
In retrospect, Al Gore was the perfect candidate. How did so many let Nader deceive them? If you can't see the huge fucking difference between Gore and * then check your prescription, because your sorry ass is near-sighted. Gore would have been our most progressive candidate in years, if ever. His only mistake in my eyes was his running mate, but Holy Joe would have been a worthy sacrifice if it meant eight years of this caring, kind visionary in the White House.

Not only that, but I don't want to hear that he rolled over and died after it was stolen. Bullshit. He fought for over a month until the Supreme Court installed Bush. Kerry layed down in 12 hours.

I honestly believe that if Mr. Gore were president, the prosperous age begun under Clinton would still be flourishing. Not only that, but such horrible tragedies like 9/11, the Iraq massacre, and the devestatation in New Orleans and the Gulf would either have never happened or have been minimized.

I can only take solace in the fact that there may be an alternate universe somewhere that diverged from our own, where the Bush gang never got away with 2000, were thrown in jail for trying to subvert the U.S. electoral process, and President Al Gore is in his fifth year.
