But what about Gore?
It's understandable that you might've missed Buck's declaration that he supports Al Gore for President in 2008. To squash two metaphors to make a bad pun, Buck has an ax to gore when he answers his own question the way he did ;-)
Buck asserts that Gore is "deeply respected in Europe" and solicited your opinion, and I'm curious too: What is the perception of Al Gore in Europe? What do you think of Al Gore?
(Disclosure: I've stated that my opinion of Al Gore 2.0 is rising the more I know about him. I've not made up my mind, but have a positive opinion.)
