in a similar efficiency program during Clinton’s terms vs. the approach trump is taking.

BTW: VP Gore was really good and on fire. He even looked/sounded much younger than I’ve seen him. Maher even said, I know we are looking for younger candidates, but you/Gore sound like you are ready to run.

I'm not saying 'he should run' but if he did? I would run, not walk. Love me some Al Gore.
