Al Gore and MTV deserve each other. [Report this comment] Posted by: JoshuaLudd on Sep 3, 2006 5:18 PM Current rating: 1 [1 = poor; 5 = excellent] They are both wholly irrelevant.

It indicates an interest in politics and in the future of the world. MTV was behaving with responsability and intellegence , I wish everyone would. Thanks for the clip AlterNet, you help keep dinosaurs like me informed.

He's intelligent and will provide the leadership this country so desperately needs right now! If you've kept up with the science behind global warming, you know that we need to act NOW to save our planet. We need Gore to lead the way. He's our man!

Posted by: JoshuaLudd » RE: Al Gore for President in 2008!! Posted by: willymack What's Gore doing on MTV? [Report this comment] Posted by: anital on Sep 5, 2006 7:44 AM Current rating: Not yet rated [1 = poor; 5 = excellent] I have no doubt that Gore has illuminated all of us to the effects of Global Warming. This is a good thing, a very good thing! However, I am very confused about his presence on MTV. Wasn't it his wife who pushed the Parental Advisory stickers on the music industry? This, to me, is a strange mix! Anyone have any other comments in this regard?

He was VP during the most prosperous 8 years in recent hisotry and learned from one of the most accomplished presidents of our time. He has the intelligence and temperment to lead and the rest of the world respects him. He would do a lot to restore the prestiege that we have lost within the international community.
