...people who know Gore assume he's biding his time, waiting to pounce; since he's at 12% in the polls-tied with John Edwards, without even being in the race-he would easily get on the primary ballots if he declared before the deadlines. He may not be rich enough to self-finance, but with his Apple and Google stock, Web following and Silicon Valley connections, money wouldn't be a huge problem either.

It seemed only natural this week for the Pope and Brazil's leftist president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, a longtime ally of the liberation theology movement, to agree on making a central priority of shrinking of the gap between rich and poor, and challenging the "mercantilization" of human beings in an age of globalization. Benedict, on Friday, led the canonization ceremony in Sao Paulo for the first-ever Brazilian-born saint, an 18th century Franciscan priest named Frei Antonio San'Anna Galvao, admired for his work with the disadvantaged...
