As with most Dailykos users, I take a great interest in politics. What makes this site great is the range of opinions that can be freely expressed here, and the opinion changing that occurs. I visit here multiple times a day, and up until this point have never posted anything here (Other than some comments on the adorableness of Markos’s Kids). Today, that will change as I write my first Dailykos diary, and I beg forgiveness for the poor quality grammar and spelling – I’m a manual laborer, not an English major.

For many months now the Dailykos has been holding regular 2008 Democratic Presidential straw polls for anyone that visits the homepage. (Example HERE) These straws have generally included all of the main contenders, but always exclude Al Gore. I have in the past understood Kos reasoning behind not putting him in including primarily (If I have miss-paraphrased Kos here I apologize, but I believe this captures the concept):

There is no commitment or signs that he is running

Gore has said he currently doesn’t plan on running in this particular election

Join me below the fold as I make my case for gore to be added to the Straw Poll
