Al Gore will NOT be running for President in 2008

[Harper_is_Bush]

I've pointed that Gore will not be running a few times on a few "Gore for '08!" frenzy threads.

I'm always asked why, and the simple answer is "he's too busy". He's got a lot happening with his fight against Global Warming.

This is his major baby at the moment: https://www.theclimateproject.org/

Here's an example of the time he's devoting to it:

On top of this, there is no evidence that Gore has begun with any fundraising or any of the other preliminary moves a Presidential candidate.

Quite frankly I'm thrilled he's doing what he's doing and think it would be diminished if he were to declare. He will obviously hold a lot of influence on the policy of the next Dem administration, so the argument that he can effect more positive change on the Global Warming file in office holds no water.

Keep up the good work Al.
