I have been thinking about this for a couple of days now. Why are THEY (The Media, The Powers that Be, The Man, The DLC ... etc.) so anxious to close the door that Al Gore has purposefully left ajar?
I think I have found the answer and its not the closeness to deadlines and the 'inevitability' of a 'you-know-who', 'Why would he lower himself', It is none of that.
They HATE being Wrong.
If Al Gore answers the call of the hundreds of thousands of Americans that have already put their names on that petition page and the millions of Americans that would love to see a Gore candidacy because they know 'oh, he would be great'. It would show just how wrong THEY were about everything of consequence.
They were wrong about Iraq, when Al Gore was warning us against it.
Like all Americans I have been wrestling with the question of what our country needs to do to defend itself from the kind of intense, focused and enabled hatred that brought about September 11th, and which at this moment must be presumed to be gathering force for yet another attack. I’m speaking today in an effort to recommend a specific course of action for our country which I believe would be preferable to the course recommended by President Bush. Specifically, I am deeply concerned that the policy we are presently following with respect to Iraq has the potential to seriously damage our ability to win the war against terrorism and to weaken our ability to lead the world in this new century.
To begin with, I believe we should focus our efforts first and foremost against those who attacked us on September 11th and have thus far gotten away with it. The vast majority of those who sponsored, planned and implemented the cold blooded murder of more than 3,000 Americans are still at large, still neither located nor apprehended, much less punished and neutralized. I do not believe that we should allow ourselves to be distracted from this urgent task simply because it is proving to be more difficult and lengthy than predicted. Great nations persevere and then prevail. They do not jump from one unfinished task to another. Sept. 23, 2002
They have been wrong not to lead on the Climate Crisis, Al Gore showed them that with a little leadership mountains could be moved (and not necessarily into a river or stream). And he's got a couple gold trophies to show for that Leadeship.
They Ridiculed him for 'Taking the initiative' to make a government network into the 'Information Superhighway', Now he is revolutionizing it again and asking us to Join the Conversation.
He was right to got to save victims of Katrina when the Federal Government sant there playing with their thumbs.

He was and is right on Torture, Domestic Wiretapping, Healthcare, Iraq, the Climate Crisis, the internet, Spike Jonze. How can a man be right so much? Visionary Leadership.
They instead have time and time again blinded by their delusions of power fail to see that:
He was right for America in 2000. Supreme Court was Wrong: (He Disagreed with Their Decision. Very right of Him)
HE IS RIGHT FOR AMERICA IN 2008
I want AL Gore to Run so we can Show THEM, How wrong they were.
Al Gore Please Answer the Call And Show them, What America can be.
