He also later stated that his experience in Vietnam didn't change my conclusions about the war being a terrible mistake, but it struck me that opponents to the war, including myself, really did not take into account the fact that there were an awful lot of who desperately wanted to hang on to what they called freedom.

Vanderbilt and journalism Gore was 'dispirited' after his return from Vietnam. Noted that, 'his father's defeat made service in a conflict he deeply opposed even more abhorrent to Gore.

In an interview on 's the following year, Gore said, 'I did not know that it was a fund-raiser. I knew it was a political event, and I knew there were finance people that were going to be present, and so that alone should have told me, 'This is inappropriate and this is a mistake; don't do this.' And I take responsibility for that.

It was a mistake.' In March 1997, Gore had to explain phone calls which he made to solicit funds for Democratic Party for the 1996 election.

In a news conference, Gore stated that, 'all calls that I made were charged to the Democratic National Committee. I was advised there was nothing wrong with that.

In addition, computer professionals and congressional colleagues argued in his defense. Internet pioneers and stated that 'we don't think, as some people have argued, that Gore intended to claim he 'invented' the Internet.

Moreover, there is no question in our minds that while serving as Senator, Gore's initiatives had a significant and beneficial effect on the still-evolving Internet.' Cerf would later state: 'Al Gore had seen what happened with the, which his father introduced as a military bill. It was very powerful. Housing went up, suburban boom happened, everybody became mobile.

Al was attuned to the power of networking much more than any of his elective colleagues. His initiatives led directly to the commercialization of the Internet. So he really does deserve credit.'

In a speech to the American Political Science Association, former Republican also stated: 'In all fairness, it's something Gore had worked on a long time. Gore is not the Father of the Internet, but in all fairness, Gore is the person who, in the Congress, most systematically worked to make sure that we got to an Internet, and the truth is—and I worked with him starting in 1978 when I got [to Congress], we were both part of a 'futures group'—the fact is, in the Clinton administration, the world we had talked about in the '80s began to actually happen.' Finally, Wolf Blitzer (who conducted the original 1999 interview) stated in 2008 that: 'I didn't ask him about the Internet. I asked him about the differences he had with Bill Bradley [.] Honestly, at the time, when he said it, it didn't dawn on me that this was going to have the impact that it wound up having, because it was distorted to a certain degree and people said they took what he said, which was a carefully phrased comment about taking the initiative and creating the Internet to—I invented the Internet. And that was the sort of shorthand, the way his enemies projected it and it wound up being a devastating setback to him and it hurt him, as I'm sure he acknowledges to this very day.' Gore himself would later poke fun at the controversy.

In 2000, while on the he read (which for this show was called, 'Top Ten Rejected Gore – Campaign Slogans') to the audience. Number nine on the list was: 'Remember, America, I gave you the Internet, and I can take it away!'

Additional speeches were also interrupted by the protesters. Gore responded, 'I love this country. I love the [.] Let me say in response to those who may have chosen an inappropriate way to make their point, that actually the crisis of AIDS in Africa is one that should command the attention of people in the United States and around the world.' Gore also issued a statement saying that he supported efforts to lower the cost of the AIDS drugs, provided that they 'are done in a way consistent with international agreements.' While Bill Clinton's job-approval ratings were around 60%, an April 1999 study by the for the People found that respondents suffered from 'Clinton fatigue' where they were 'tired of all the problems associated with the Clinton administration' including the Lewinsky scandal and impeachment.

Texas Governor and likely Republican presidential nominee was leading Gore 54% to 41% in polls during that time. Gore's advisers believed that the 'Lewinsky scandal and Bill's past womanizing.alienated independent voters—especially the, who stood for '. Consequently, Gore's presidential campaign 'veered too far in differentiating himself from Bill and his record and had difficulty taking advantage of the Clinton administration's legitimate successes'. In addition, Hillary's candidacy for the open Senate seat in New York exacerbated the 'three-way tensions evident in the White House since 1993', as 'not only was Hillary unavailable as a campaigner, she was poaching top Democratic fund-raisers and donors who would normally concentrate on the vice president'. In one instance 'Hillary insisted on being invited [to a Los Angeles fundraiser for the vice president]—over the objections of the event's organizers', where the First Lady 'shocked the vice president's supporters by soliciting donations for herself in front of Tipper'. Gore faced an early challenge by former New Jersey senator.

Bradley was the only candidate to oppose Gore and was considered a 'fresh face' for the White House. Gore challenged Bradley to a series of debates which took the form of 'town hall' meetings.

Gore went on the offensive during these debates leading to a drop in the polls for Bradley. In the Iowa caucus the unions pledged their support to Gore, despite Bradley spending heavily in that state, and Bradley was much embarrassed by his two to one defeat there. Gore went on to capture the New Hampshire primary 53-47%, which had been a must-win state for Bradley. Gore then swept all of the primaries on Super Tuesday while Bradley finished a distant second in each state.

On March 9, 2000, after failing to win any of the first 20 primaries and caucuses in the election process, Bradley withdrew his campaign and endorsed Gore. Gore eventually went on to win every primary and caucus and, in March 2000 even won the first primary election ever held over the Internet, the Arizona Presidential Primary.

By then, he secured the Democratic nomination. On August 13, 2000, Gore announced that he had selected Senator of Connecticut as his vice presidential running mate. Lieberman became 'the first person of the to run for the nation's second-highest office.' Many pundits saw Gore's choice of Lieberman as further distancing him from the scandals of the Clinton White House.

Gore's daughter, Karenna, together with her father's former Harvard roommate, officially nominated Gore as the Democratic presidential candidate during the in. Gore accepted his party's nomination and spoke about the major themes of his campaign, stating in particular his plan to extend to pay for and to work for a sensible system. Soon after the convention, Gore hit the campaign trail with running mate. Gore and Bush were deadlocked in the polls.

They participated in three televised debates. While both sides claimed victory after each, Gore was critiqued as either too stiff, too reticent, or too aggressive in contrast to Bush. Recount On election night, news networks first called Florida for Gore, later retracted the projection, and then called Florida for Bush, before finally retracting that projection as well. Florida's,, eventually certified Florida's vote count. This led to the, a move to further examine the. The Florida recount was stopped a few weeks later by the. In the ruling,, the Justices held that the Florida recount was unconstitutional and that no constitutionally valid recount could be completed by the December 12 deadline, effectively ending the recounts.

This 7–2 vote ruled that the standards the provided for a recount were unconstitutional due to violations of the Equal Protection Clause of the, and further ruled 5–4 that no constitutionally valid recount could be completed by the December 12 deadline. This case ordered an end to recounting underway in selected Florida counties, effectively giving George W. Bush a 537 vote victory in Florida and consequently Florida's 25 and the presidency.

The results of the decision led to Gore winning the by approximately 500,000 votes nationwide, but receiving 266 electoral votes to Bush's 271 (one elector abstained). On December 13, 2000, Gore conceded the election. Gore strongly disagreed with the Court's decision, but in his concession speech stated that, 'for the sake of our unity as a people and the strength of our democracy, I offer my concession.' Post-Vice Presidency (2001–present). Gore in 2000 Bill Clinton and Gore had maintained an informal public distance for eight years, but they reunited for the media in August 2009. Clinton had arranged for the release of two female journalists who were being. The women were employees of Gore's.

Criticism of Bush Beginning in 2002, Gore began to publicly criticize the. In a September 23 speech that he gave before the, Gore criticized Bush and Congress for the rush to war prior to the outbreak of hostilities in. He compared this decision to the (which Gore had voted for) stating, 'Back in 1991, I was one of a handful of Democrats in the United States Senate to vote in favor of the resolution endorsing the Persian Gulf War [.] But look at the differences between the resolution that was voted on in 1991 and the one this administration is proposing that the Congress vote on in 2002. The circumstances are really completely different. To review a few of them briefly: in 1991, Iraq had crossed an international border, invaded a neighboring sovereign nation and annexed its territory.

Now by contrast in 2002, there has been no such invasion.' In a speech given in 2004, during the, Gore accused George W. Bush of betraying the country by using the as a justification for the invasion of Iraq. The next year, Gore gave a speech which covered many topics, including what he called 'religious zealots' who claim special knowledge of God's will in American politics. Gore stated: 'They even claim that those of us who disagree with their point of view are waging war against people of faith.' After in 2005, Gore chartered two planes to evacuate 270 people from and criticized the Bush administration's response to the hurricane.

In 2006, Gore criticized Bush's use of domestic without a warrant. One month later, in a speech given at the, Gore criticized the treatment of in the U.S. After 9/11 stating, 'Unfortunately there have been terrible abuses and it's wrong [.] I do want you to know that it does not represent the desires or wishes or feelings of the majority of the citizens of my country.' Gore's 2007 book,, is an analysis of what Gore refers to as the 'emptying out of the ' in civic discourse during the Bush administration. He attributes this phenomenon to the influence of television and argues that it endangers American democracy.

By contrast, Gore argues, the Internet can revitalize and ultimately 'redeem the integrity of representative democracy.' In 2008, Gore argued against the ban of same-sex marriage on his Current TV website, stating, 'I think that gay men and women ought to have the same rights as heterosexual men and women to make contracts, have hospital visiting rights, and join together in marriage.' In a 2009 interview with, Gore commented on former Vice President 's criticism of the. Referring to his own previous criticism of the Bush administrations, Gore stated: 'I waited two years after I left office to make statements that were critical, and then of the policy [.] You know, you talk about somebody that shouldn't be talking about making the country less safe, invading a country that did not attack us and posed no serious threat to us at all.' While Gore has criticized Bush for his Katrina response, he has not spoken publicly about his part in the evacuation of 270 patients on September 3 & 4, 2005, from Charity Hospital in New Orleans to Tennessee. On September 1, Gore was contacted by Charity Hospital's Neurosurgeon Dr.

David Kline, who had operated on his son Albert, through Greg Simon of. Kline informed Gore and Simon of the desperate conditions at the hospital and asked Gore and Simon to arrange relief. On Gore's personal financial commitment, two airlines each provided a plane with one flight latter underwritten. The flights were flown by volunteer airline crews and medically staffed by Gore's cousin, retired Col. Dar LaFon, and family physician Dr. Anderson Spickard and were accompanied by Gore and Albert III. Gore used his political influence to expedite landing rights in New Orleans.

Presidential run speculation. Asks: 'Will you run again?' Gore replies, 'Ohh, you aren't going to get me on this one!' People were speculating that Gore would be a candidate for the (a bumper sticker, 'Re-elect Gore in 2004!' Was popular). On December 16, 2002, however, Gore announced that he would not run in 2004. Despite Gore taking himself out of the race, a handful of his supporters formed a national campaign to him into running.

One observer concluded it was 'Al Gore who has the best chance to defeat the incumbent president', noting that 'of the 43 Presidents, only three have been direct descendents of former Presidents:',, and, that 'all three won the office only after. Anomalies in the ', that the first two were defeated for re-election in a populist backlash, and finally that 'the men who first lost to the presidential progeny and then beat them' (i.e. And ) 'each won a sort of immortality—having his image placed on a unit of US currency', and that Gore should answer this call of history. The draft movement, however, failed to convince Gore to run. The prospect of a Gore candidacy arose again between 2006 and early 2008 in light of the upcoming.

Although Gore frequently stated that he had 'no plans to run', he did not reject the possibility of future involvement in politics which led to speculation that he might run. This was due in part to his increased popularity after the release of the 2006 documentary, An Inconvenient Truth.

The director of the film,, stated that after the release of the film, 'Everywhere I go with him, they treat him like a rock star.' After An Inconvenient Truth was nominated for an, (Gore's campaign chairwoman from his 2000 campaign) speculated that Gore might announce a possible presidential candidacy during the Oscars. During the ceremony, Gore and actor shared the stage to speak about the ' of the ceremony itself. Gore began to give a speech that appeared to be leading up to an announcement that he would run for president. However, background music drowned him out and he was escorted offstage, implying that it was a rehearsed gag, which he later acknowledged. After An Inconvenient Truth won the, speculation increased about a possible presidential run. Gore's popularity was indicated in polls which showed that even without running, he was coming in second or third among possible Democratic candidates,, and.

Campaigns also developed with the hope that they could encourage Gore to run. Gore, however, remained firm in his decision and declined to run for the presidency.

Interest in having Gore run for the arose in 2014 and again in 2015, although he did not declare any intention to do so. Involvement in presidential campaigns. Gore speaks during the final day of the in After announcing he would not run in the, Gore endorsed in December 2003, weeks before the first primary of the election cycle. He was criticized for this endorsement by eight Democratic contenders particularly since he did not endorse his former running mate Joe Lieberman (Gore preferred Dean over Lieberman because Lieberman supported the and Gore did not).

Dean's campaign soon became a target of attacks and eventually failed, with Gore's early endorsement being credited as a factor. In The New York Times, Dean stated: 'I actually do think the endorsement of Al Gore began the decline.' The Times further noted that 'Dean instantly amplified his statement to indicate that the endorsement from Mr. Gore, a powerhouse of the establishment, so threatened the other Democratic candidates that they began the attacks on his candidacy that helped derail it.' Dean's former campaign manager,, also stated that after Gore's endorsement of Dean, 'alarm bells went off in every newsroom in the country, in every other campaign in the country', indicating that if something did not change, Dean would be the nominee. Later, in March 2004, Gore endorsed and gave Kerry $6 million in funds left over from his own unsuccessful 2000 bid. Gore also opened the.

During the, Gore remained neutral toward all of the candidates which led to speculation that he would come out of a brokered 2008 Democratic National Convention as a 'compromise candidate' if the party decided it could not nominate one. Gore responded by stating that these events would not take place because a candidate would be nominated through the primary process. Senator had urged Gore to endorse Senator though Gore declined. When Obama became the presumptive Democratic nominee for president on June 3, 2008, speculation began that Gore might be tapped for the vice presidency. On June 16, 2008, one week after Hillary Clinton had suspended her campaign, Gore endorsed Obama in a speech given in which renewed speculation of an Obama-Gore ticket.

Gore stated, however, that he was not interested in being Vice President again. On the timing and nature of Gore's endorsement, some argued that Gore waited because he did not want to repeat his calamitous early endorsement of during the. On the final night of the, shortly before Obama delivered his acceptance address, Gore gave a speech offering his full support. Such support led to new speculation after Obama was elected President during the that Gore would be named a member of the Obama administration. This speculation was enhanced by a meeting held between Obama, Gore, and in on December 9, 2008. However, Democratic officials and Gore's spokeswoman stated that during the meeting the only subject under discussion was the climate crisis, and Gore would not be joining the Obama administration.

On December 19, 2008, Gore described Obama's environmental administrative choices of,, and as 'an exceptional team to lead the fight against the climate crisis.' Gore repeated his neutrality eight years later during the until endorsing Hillary Clinton on July 25, 2016, the first day of.

Gore appeared with her at a rally on on October 11, 2016. President meets with Al Gore and the other 2007 Nobel Award recipients, November 26, 2007 Gore has been involved with environmental issues since 1976, when as a freshman congressman, he held the 'first congressional hearings on the climate change, and co-sponsor[ed] hearings on toxic waste and global warming.' He continued to speak on the topic throughout the 1980s, and is still prevalent in the environmental community. He was known as one of the, later called the 'Democrats' Greens, politicians who see issues like clean air, clean water and global warming as the key to future victories for their party.' In 1990, Senator Gore presided over a three-day conference with legislators from over 42 countries which sought to create a, 'under which industrial nations would help less developed countries grow economically while still protecting the environment.' In the late 1990s, Gore strongly pushed for the passage of the, which called for reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. He was opposed by the Senate, which passed unanimously (95–0) the (S.

98), which stated the sense of the Senate was that the United States should not be a signatory to any protocol that did not include binding targets and timetables for developing as well as industrialized nations or 'would result in serious harm to the economy of the United States'. In 2004, he co-launched, a company for which he serves as Chair.

A few years later, Gore also founded The, an organization which eventually founded the. Gore also became a partner in the venture capital firm,, heading that firm's climate change solutions group. He also helped to organize the benefit concerts. Gore's speech on Global Warming at the BankUnited Center, February 28, 2007 In 2013, Gore became a. He had earlier admitted that 'it's absolutely correct that the growing meat intensity of diets across the world is one of the issues connected to this global crisis – not only because of the [carbon dioxide] involved, but also because of the water consumed in the process' and some speculate that his adoption of the new diet is related to his environmentalist stance. In a 2014 interview, Gore said 'Over a year ago I changed my diet to a vegan diet, really just to experiment to see what it was like. I felt better, so I've continued with it and I'm likely to continue it for the rest of my life.'

At the, Gore released, a sequel to his 2006 film, An Inconvenient Truth, which documents his continuing efforts to battle climate change. A 'Climate and Health Summit' which was originally going to be held by the, was cancelled without warning in late January, 2017.

A few days later, Gore revived the summit, which he will hold without the CDC. In August 2017 during an interview with, Al Gore continued to show his support in the fight against climate change saying 'Young people have the key role. This climate movement change is in the tradition of other great morally based movements that have advanced the cause of human-kind'. During the same interview he also said should ' when asked what advice he would give him. Criticism A conservative Washington D.C.

Think tank, and a Republican member of Congress, among others, have claimed that Gore has a conflict-of-interest for advocating for taxpayer subsidies of green-energy technologies in which he has a personal investment. Additionally, he has been criticized for his above-average energy consumption in using private jets, and in owning multiple, very large homes, one of which was reported in 2007 as using high amounts of electricity. Gore's spokesperson responded by stating that the Gores use which is more expensive than regular energy and that the Tennessee house in question has been retrofitted to make it more energy-efficient.

Data in have been questioned. In a 2007, a British judge said that while he had 'no doubt.the film was broadly accurate' and its 'four main scientific hypotheses.are supported by a vast quantity of research', he upheld nine of a 'long schedule' of alleged errors presented to the court. He ruled that the film could be shown to schoolchildren in the UK if guidance notes given to teachers were amended to balance out the film's one-sided political views. Gore's spokeswoman responded in 2007 that the court had upheld the film's fundamental thesis and its use as an educational tool. In 2009, Gore described the British court ruling as being 'in my favor.'

In the late 1980s and 1990s, Gore was criticized for his involvement in asking the for less strict pollution controls for the. Organizations including (PETA) criticized Gore for not advocating as a way for individuals to reduce their. Gore agreed that, but did not want to 'go quite as far as. Saying everybody should become a vegetarian'. He said that although he was not a vegetarian, he had 'cut back sharply' on his consumption of meat. Meeting with Ivanka and Donald Trump President 's daughter,, reported that she intended to make climate change one of her signature issues while her father served as President of the United States. She therefore contacted Al Gore, and he met with her and her father on December 5, 2016, at Trump Tower.

Following his visit, Gore spoke briefly to the media standing outside the elevator of Trump Tower. Gore related that: 'I had a lengthy and very productive session with the president-elect. It was a sincere search for areas of common ground.

I had a meeting beforehand with Ivanka Trump. The bulk of the time was with the president-elect, Donald Trump.

I found it an extremely interesting conversation, and to be continued, and I'm just going to leave it at that.' This was a significant milestone, as Trump once that '[t]he concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S.
