Do you realize
that 6 years ago Americans had a chance to choose Al Gore to lead and represent us, and instead chose George Bush, the meanest, dumbest, most ignorant man ever to run for president? As Gore continues to exude knowlege, charm, sophistication, and leadership on all manner of issue, we're stuck with a drooling drunk who stutters, leans, patronizes and lies, and couldn't find Iraq on a map to save his life.

What happened? :cry: Can it be salvaged? :cry:

3. We didn't choose him.
The Supreme Court assigned him to the American people.

Can it be salvaged? I think we may have to go through darker times than these before people wake up.

4. I still think Gore would have lost in 2004 assuming 9/11 had occurred
The nasty GOP would have used 911 against Gore in an incredibly vicious way - unlike the "rally behind the President" crap we must endure.

6. Gore won the popular vote in 2000.

And it was later shown that he won the Electoral College technically, too.

Americans did choose Gore.
