Why Al Gore Is Not President

by Rick Jacobs

Al Gore is truth. Think about it. He says what needs to be said without fear, without posturing. He leads.

He succeeds in the worlds of politics, business, and diplomacy. He reads and writes history. He has access to the smartest people on the planet. He has a loving, close-knit family who are his best friends. He rose from the politically dead in 2000, left behind by his “friends” who thought he could no longer help them, having lost an election to thieves.

Today, Al Gore quietly endorsed equal rights for homosexuals. He did not make a big announcement. He didn’t hold a press conference. He didn’t stand in front of a rainbow coalition. He just put up a video on his Current TV. It’s vintage Al Gore: just the facts, a statement of the obvious that our politicians are too scared to address head on.
