Gore/Obama ticket for 2012? Am I crazy?
Tell me why that's a bad idea please, other than the incumbency issue and/or Barack's ego.

Barack could learn a lot from Al and still have his second term in 2016 or 2020. I think that ticket would ROCK.

2. I don't think either one of them would like it.
And what about Joe Biden?

I KNOW he would oppose it.

Also, Gore has firmly stated that he has NO interest in running again...

NOPE.

Not going to happen.

:hi:

4. That should have been the ticket in 2008, really.
Obama might have benefitted greatly from 8 years as VP before taking on the big job.

But I don't think anybody is going to ask a sitting President to take a back seat in his second term.

6. I'm thinking the 2012 ticket will be Obama/Clinton

Biden steps aside for the future of the party. A slight possibility.

16. Totally off the wall, but if you are correct then you are a genius.
As far as reality goes though, you are crazy.
