...Will Gore Get on the Trail? I hope Al Gore will run for President in 2008 [May 28]. He has the intelligence a President needs to deal with complex situations both domestically and internationally. I am heartbroken that I did not realize that in 2000. I hope Gore will give me and many other voters the opportunity to make things right in 2008.
