A decent hardworking guy who would've been a good president. Given the CIA warnings in August 2001, he would have worked his tail off trying to prevent 9/11. I think he might have succeeded.

Al Gore: Hi, I've won an Oscar, a Nobel Prize, and I invented the Internet. Nice to meet you.

Al Gore, a one-time vice-president serving under Bill Clinton, best known as a staunch environmentalist and the self-described “inventor of the internet” – a claim Gore later repeated only in self-mockery.
The Vice President backtracked significantly on environmental issues as he pandered to middle-of-the-road voters in the run-up to the 2000 U.S. election. Ultimately Gore won the most votes overall, but lost to the Self-Proclaimed President, George Bush (see electoral college) in the aftermath of the strangest and most public vote-recount in history, in the State of Florida.
The issue was resolved by the unprecedented intervention of the greatest three-ring circus on earth, the U.S. Supreme Court. The court then held their own election for president, finding for Bush in a party-line split decision – essentially invalidating the votes of several million U.S. citizens.
Numerous investigations had contrary findings about who actually won in Florida, but no one argues the fact that Al Gore won the popular vote. Gore later repeated this fact so many times that even many of his supporters were glad to see him go.
Afterwards, Gore faded to near-invisibility, which he attempted to overcome by declining to shave, and by making the odd televised appeal to Americans about things that no one remembers anymore.
In the long run, he may be best-remembered for his slide-show (and later film) about the threat of global warming, “An Inconvenient Truth”. But then, if his predictions are correct and everything is burned to a crisp, maybe not.

Global Warming activist / hipocritical D Bag:
A charlatan hypocrite, sitting back blissfully betrothed in his 20 room mansion that exploits more energy in one month than the average American household does in an entire year (that’s 12 times as much if you can’t do 1st grade mathematics) while laughing at his calculatingly false accusations of global warming while gas looms $5.00 per gallon.
