Is that a Nobel prize in his pocket, or is he just happy to see us?

So now that Al Gore can add “Nobel Prize” winner to his resume, is he going to reconsider a run at the White House?

I’m still convinced that Hillary is unelectable, but I don’t think the slate that the GOP is offering is anything special. Al Gore, on the other hand, already won the popular vote once, and that was when he was doing everything wrong. Nothing teaches the way experience does. I have to think that the older, wiser Gore could take the White House in a walk. The only question is whether it’s a walk he wants to take. Because he’d be taking a hëll of a chance: Right now he’s a respected elder statesman with major cred toward getting the job done in terms of reversing global warming. If he runs and loses, then it’s not only a step back personally, but it’s a step back for the interests of the world environmental situation because he’ll be just another failed presidential candidate.

Personally I hope he goes for it, but then again, that’s easy for me to say.
