Yeah, probably the worst poll in DU history BainsBane Jun 2013 #3

In all honesty I almost said Al Gore Warren DeMontague Jun 2013 #11

Joe Biden? BainsBane Jun 2013 #12

And well you should. She's great. Warren DeMontague Jun 2013 #26

You're still winning the poll BainsBane Jun 2013 #108

If I have to choose one, then probably Gore. Mainly because I'm not the most sociable, or personable nomorenomore08 Jun 2013 #18

You seem every bit as smart as Gore BainsBane Jun 2013 #20

I always liked Howard Dean however... AsahinaKimi Jun 2013 #62

Remember this is based on personality traits BainsBane Jun 2013 #63

I am not really sure I entirely know his personality traits... AsahinaKimi Jun 2013 #67

fair enough, but the idea is to choose from those listed BainsBane Jun 2013 #68

I don't know... for example AsahinaKimi Jun 2013 #77

That goes for everyone you know BainsBane Jun 2013 #79

Yeah.. so AsahinaKimi Jun 2013 #90

How about Al Gore then? BainsBane Jun 2013 #76
