Peter Paul vs Hillary....

Why isn't this civil case, getting any press? HRC, Bill and little HRC are scheduled to go to court in November. Maybe she's thinking....

If I become the President, I can't be charged.....hmmm.....

Everyone needs to go to YouTube and type in "Paul vs Hillary" – it's a full-length video, with at least 13-16 clips.

Now that's some SCARY stuff!

The experience thing is killing me! How does one gain experience to become President? Is there a course you take? Or maybe a book you read? Truth is there is nothing you can do to prepare for the Presidency; I think 9/11 proved that. Also, look at what the experienced people have done to this country! I say we give the new person a crack at the job!

All you Obama bashers:

Try reading the article before commenting. It helps.

Obama '08!

The negative responses on this blog only confirms how people are so hatefilled in this country.

Try praying to God and asking him to remove your mean spirit!!!
How pathetic?

Obama has been saying from the get-go that he is all about change.

So why would he want an over-the-hill, aging and stagnated cracker like Gore?

Get someone fresh and new. Gore is old school.

Since Global Warming isn't viable, we now have climate change as another way to reach into taxpayers pockets. Obama look up the facts and the costs that would produce no measurable impact

Message to Vigo. Don't all people running for office do the same thing? Sometimes the comments to these postings clearly show how uneducated the responders are. What is Obama supposed to do? Surround himself with the dumbest people? I suppose you'd then vote for him? People, come on!!! Al Gore happens to be a politician who's been involved with climate change issues for years now. The guy won an Oscar award for crying out loud. (Although, he wasn't my choice for the Oscar).

So Vig, what better choice is there on that particular issue? If this is how most citizens are making their decisions on whom to elect, God help us.

YEAH,

HE'S ONLY SAYING THAT BECAUSE HE IS TRYING TO RIDE ON AL GORES COAT TAILS!!!!

AL GORE IS TOO SMART TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH OBAMA!

HE IS DISHONEST AND IS BLOCKING OUR VOTES!!!!!

THIS IS WHY SENATOR CLINTON GETS MY SUPPORT!!!!!!!!

Great. The Titanic now has a Captain.

Why is Obama arrogant? He was just answering a question. He did not even say any thing definite. He said, "he'd consider".

Read people, Read !!. Unless you (those who are criticizing Obama) do not know how to read. Hmm.. aren't you the same group who will be voting for McCain when Obama wins or moving to Canada. I must say..that is very intelligent . (sarcasm)

Gore wont endorse obama, so now Obama tries to connect his name to him without his permission.

I really hope Gore comes out and politely declines with a bemused grin on his face.

It would serve Obama right for trying to cash in on his influence.

way to go barack we in the caribbean support you all the way. We caribbea nationals living in the USA will vote for you. Stay strong brother

How can people actually be leaving comments about Obama being a SLIMEBALL when Hillary is the one tearing the Democratic party apart with her tactics? Hilary is a 50%+1 type of candidate... she doesn't care about the democratic election process, she will do anything to win this election. It's clear that America wants Obama, and America WILL have Obama. Hilary, for the sake of our country, go home.

That's so big of him! Gore should be the President and Obama should keep learning the ropes. get the experience he need to run this Country.

Anybody who doesn't support Obama supports G.W. Bush. Vote Obamo 08 period.

I would not connect myself to this potential administration! Gore deserves better than that!

Don't count your chickens before they hatch. Hillary is not done yet. McCain is waiting in the wings and so are we the Hispanic Republicans, ready to kick your butt. and show you the door.
Can't wait to November.

I am beginning to think that most bloggers are not reading the ENTIRE ARTICLE.

Obama even wants Bill Clinton on his team in a second" – what now sexist 'Billary' hatters?

I say again, Hillary Clinto actually has a higher IQ than her husband

From an International perspective, they would make a great team. Go for it!!

PLEEEEEEEASE, give me a break I want to barf. Al Gore, I'm sure is rolling his eyes.

Al Gore should be THEDEMOCRAT'S CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT OF THE USA.
Sorry to say folks, but, Obama looks a lot like being underprepared, but yeah: he's got the looks and also the nice words. And that's it?
Is that enough?

Any surprise here really? Gore should be part of the next administration if the president is a Democrat. For all that was said about Gore 8 years back I think few disagree that we would probably be better today if he had been elected, at the very least he has gained praise and distinction while president Bush has become a symbol for everything wrong with America today. Most likely, Gore will eventually support Obama, there is too much bad blood with the Clintons and he really owes them nothing.

Gore would be great as head of the EPA and even better if he was given the clout to really get the DOJ after repeat offenders.

Do something about global warming? What global warming? We are at the end of the coldest winter in recorded history. Of course Al Gore and the media are silent on this little fact.

Obama lies and lies and more lies...Obama couldn't run on experience because he doesn't have any and he is great about talking about change (The best he has been offering is new idea) but he have not have the courage to do what is necessary to make it happen. He is on the senator floor for three years now so what has he accomplished? What change? Obama will not win, because we will make sure he doesn't.

McCain 08
Because experience DOES matter

Does some of you people know how to read?? Before you post some stupid comments on this board please ensure you read the article first.

" I will make a commitment that Al Gore will be at the table and play a central part in us figuring out how we solve this [climate change] problem," Obama said."

Where does it say Obama wants Gore to be his VP??

For goodness sake!!!
Get it right people!!

Al Gore in an Obama administration. Mr. Gore is just a mouthpiece for a cause that has not yet been scientifically validated. He himself doesn't really understand it (see him live if you doubt).

Obama is ridiculously naive. Would it not go without question that any president would offer Al Gore an honorary seat at any table to discuss global warming?? Duh?? Obama reminds me of a middle school child choosing his team to play kickball. Where are the sophisticated and intellectual qualities as well as just plain common sense in this candidate? Also, where is Michelle Obama? I have not seen or heard from her for weeks.

Please! Obama. Give me a break!

You are like a kid to ask your parent to be your kid!

Funny! I really doubt Obama's brain...... Is this April.1st?

No! Is this true??? Unbelievable!

No Obama! FOEVER! FOREVER!

For those of you that think it's an insult to Gore...

Ummm...He was on the top of the ticket at one time BUT COULDN'T GET ELECTED.

He has done a lot of research and work on the climate and you have to give him kudos for it. If you don't think anything is wrong with the planet then that is your choice but don't get arrogant and act like you know more.

What science books have any of you ever read? What do you know about the planet and climate more than experts do that back Gore's findings?

These blogs I swear are always filled with a bunch of pig-headed know-it-all Americans.

Gore should be honored to be sought after by Obama. He is probably thinking about endorsing him too. You know he was put through hell dealing with the Clintons.

I think Obama has been given so much more positive television coverage than Hillary. Much more time and I wonder why? Could it be corporate America? Do they feel it would be easier for McCain to win against Obama? America did well when Hillary's husband was President, I think she would do the same. What is it we really don't know about Obama?

All you OBAMA folks, I feel sorry for you.

You're in for a RUDE AWAKENING COME NOVEMBER!
McCain's Gonna Blow You Folks OUT OF THE WATER!

Tried to tell ya.
But you're all to busy in your LUV FEST!

HA HA HA HA HA....................

Gore has been VP before. Why would Gore care to be VP again? OB's words are used to feed fools only, … Most americans are clever than that…

-joeh

joeh, it's not Obama's words that are feeding the fool's, it's the fool's not hearing those words correctly that are feeding themselves. He never said VP, joeh. You're right, most American's are clever, but you're not one of them.

I'm amazed reading all of the responses. In the article i saw i saw no specific mention of Gore as a potential VP, merely as someone who would be a welcome addition to an Obama administration. Although i agree we wouldn't benefit from an entire administration filled with former political insiders, a strong, smart and effective leader always hires to complement his strengths, not duplicate them. There is nothing wrong with admiring traits and knowledge in others and expressing a desire to include that talent on your team. for the past 8 years GWB has done nothing but surround himself with anyone who will tell him what he wants to hear and support him at all costs. Barack has openly said he wants people around him who will question and challenge so that the BEST solutions are put on the table. not just his.

Obama must not be very secure of the way his campaign is going if he keeps begging Gore for his endorsement.
I do not think the former vp will endorse a person who has a spiritual mentor that hates white people and the u.s.

We are not for Obama anymore. Now for CLINTON. Sure, he would like to have Gore with him, because he ( Obama ) lacks experience. And what we have seen, is he likes being 'in the news a little too much'. Somewhat 'star struck'. Not good for a president,

For Hillary Clinton

FLATTERY...thy name is Obama...

Of course he would want Al Gore & Bill Clinton in his administration: He must surround himself with seasoned people who have much more experience to compensate for his lack thereof and his unpreparedness for the job.

This fight is getting way too nasty on both sides. The candidates don't need to spew venom at eachother anymore....we are doing it for them. We are buying into every spin that the media gives this election. Their ratings depend on getting us all stirred up over absolutely nothing!!! No one even seems to pay attention to their candidates plans or ideas for this country. You're all wasting time calling them liars or making fun of issues like race or gender....What is wrong with you people????? Lets keep to the subject matter and let the debates continue in an adult like manner. I support Hillary but I would never dream of bashing Obama or any supporters that believe in him. I think he's a good man but I prefer her...this does not make me an idiot. This makes me lucky to live in a country where I have a choice.

I think it would be great to have Gore handling environmental issues, but if he gets anywhere close to being a Vice President, then Obama would lose many Republican votes, like mine. His vice presidency candidate needs to be a moderate; like most Republicans view Obama.

It is the weakest of minds who see intellegence , foresight and wisdom as arrogance.

Lots of those here.

You Obama people will fall for anything, this includes you Jack.

CNN why are you not posting my comments???
That is not what Senator Obama said, all he said he will include Gore as he wil probably include many people including republicans....
the billary supporters are so pressed to make any statements, like Hillary they will say anything .................. and in capital letters in this blog..
sad sad sad

Are you kidding ???Gore worki ng for Obama. . What a joke this must be. Gore does not need to work with someone engaged in "on the job training. " Gore would sit around for the ffirst half of the term, waiting for obama to decide what being a President is and means

YO HILLARY.....where are your 6 plus years of tax returns??? First, it was."I am kinda busy right now"( that was Ohio debate) then "Oh, I will release them when it is appropiate", Then...2 weeks ago..." I will release them next week" as reported on CNN.....YO Hillary...Where are they????? McCain have released theirs.....let us all have a look at yours...LONG BEFORE April 22nd.....Pennsylvania has a right to know!!!!!

I have written several pro-Hillary posts today, and none has been deemed worthy by our esteemed pro-Obama CNN. The man lies and lies some more, but it's OK because he's a nice-looking, calm, MAN who must not be able to lead us astray. After all, he's got God and the good Rev. Wright advising him. I am getting ill reading about his lies on factcheck.org and then coming here to read the supporters. Wake up before it's too late.

I am a Clinton supporter but now its too little too late for her. There is no possible way she can win now. I will support Obama if he wins which I'm positive he will. Al Gore would be a great choice for Obama. Al Gore is very experienced and Obama can bring out change. A combination of the two would be unstoppable. I say Obama if u want Gore then take him. The last person I want in the White House is another Bush like McCain. I prefer Clinton over Obama but I'd rather have Obama than another Bush.

Al Gore said he'll join the Obama camp only if Obama insists on Florida and Michigan votes to count....ha ha ha...Gore knows what it means not to have votes count...lol.

I get annoyed when a sensible person with a brain says Hillary can win the whitehouse. Hillary takes women for granted and she is playing the gender card all the time. She keeps saying women should vote for her because she is a woman. Well give me a break! At least barack does not play the race card and he knows what he is talking about. I like the idea of Gore in the administration. Americans, please wake up, stop creating the Bush/Clinton dynasty and vote for Barack Obama. He is the only chance that we have to salvage our already bad image in the world.
As a woman, I say, GO Barack GO!

would you let your kids set and hear all the stuff from some one saying the usa is wrong and bad
i dont think any one but obama would do this
just think about it

What are you crazy...Obama...Al Gore on your table...give it up....just another way to get a vote...He would never consider running on your table!!!! VOTE HILLARY 08

Wow, did any of you actually read the story.....? I see all these comments about Al Gore being VP to obama? where did that come from? please read the article before you post blindly people.......

DEMS in 08!!!!!

I'd rather see Bill Clinton in the White House in ' drag ' than having to stomach ' bridezilla ' Michelle Obama as First Lady....she's a complete joke...funniest election ever...thank you media !!

Seriously, the sooner Hillary and Bill Clinton come clean on the tax returns, the better.

HA, I read these every day and love to see the hillary fans comment. It's obvious they read the first line. Decide what the article says from that and then post. You guys really do not make an indecided want to lean your way. Perhaps we can blame it on no child left behind... we have left many article posters behind.
Face it kids and hillary plants, it is done.

There was a trick to whoever asked that question in his campaign. Somebody here posted that if Obama claims that we are done with old politics, then picking Gore in his cabinet is another flip-flop he is so used to doing all throughout this race.
You will see his inconsistencies in this race as you get to know him more.
On another note, Obama thinks that if he mentions Gore in his campaign, it will sell to people who always rooted for Gore.
I agree with the others- it is arrogance.

Can the guy get anymore ARROGANT!!!!!

What gives Obama the right to be talking about a VP? Why don't you ask Sen. Clinton who she would choose? CNN, when Clinton wins the nomination, you will all look like idiots. I have written many e-mails to CNN, but not one has shown up on "comments". You and your reporters are disgusting. So anti Clinton, I hope people are smart enough to see what's going on all over that country. Why didn't CNN show Wright controversy in January?? They, like all other media, tried to cover up for Obama. He is scary to even be trying to run for President. He and his cronies have been throwing the kitchen sink at Clinton. Report on that.

There are a lot of morons, who apparently can not read, posting comments. For the record; Senator Obama did not say that he would consider Mr. Gore for the VP spot. That is all in your addled minds. Deal in facts, instead of inventing your own.

Can You Say PANDERING?

The new agent of change wants to bring in the old war horse from the past. This is change we can do without. i don't care if
he put my Priest in his cabinet, I will still not vote for Obama.

Obama is not electable. If by some miracle he would win, we are calling for the State of Texas to exercise it's reserved right to become the Republic of Texas.

BK wrote : Obama will do anything to try and get votes. Al Gore would never even consider being Obama's VP? Obama must think we all idiots.

Well, BK, some of us are apparently are idiots or at least are not capable of reading before mouthing off. Gore is not being mentioned for VP.

Try reading the report.

Obama is desperately trying and saying anything to win this nomination. Too bad it's all for naught. The pretender will NEVER be president.

This is getting better every day.
Formal "Community activist" from Chicago is offering a job to formal VP and Nobel Price Winer...
Somebody better tell him that he is not going to be a President....

AL wart in the cabinet, whaty a joke! global warming huh, really, prove it. Obama talks to wart boy about the climate change, ask wart boy why he looks so fat, because he travels the globe in a jet, using the precious fuel he doesn't want us to have becasue of global warming, what a loser, he think it is just for him.

Barak Obama wouldn't make a pimple on Al Gore's bottom. Give me a break. You think Al Gore would accept a position in an Obama administration when he's been with the best...Bill Clinton. Obama is right up there with McCain...say anything to get elected. Go Hillary!!!

Man! Even Hillary's supporters are starting to sound like bitter old women!

Good grief!

Obama '08!!

Does no one else think its awfully convenient that he wants Gore NOW, after he dissed him a few years ago- and before Gore's inconvenient truth success?

I'm thinking this guy Obama is shadier by the minute... Please dont fall for it.
Hillary 08

How is he arrogant again?

He was ASKED if he would consider Gore for his cabinet and he said "in a second."

Wouldn't it be arrogant to say no, he wouldn't?

Ok, I guess its fair that Gore be compared to Michael Moore, they both did documentaries that opened the eyes of millions of people to overlooked problems...but did Hillary actually compare herself to Rocky? Did anyone even see the last sequel...I didn't think so.

I do really gave my vote to Obahma. I belive that many people will never agree with me but, that's my VOTE.

By the way evrey thing changes.

Gore WILL be involved with whomever becomes president in regards to the climate crisis!! Whether any of them choose to create a cabinet position for him is debatable.

Poll: Clinton leads Obama, McCain in key states

god has spoken so it shall be done!

Good, that is all we need a couple of hacks from the 90's to help run this country. Gore and Clinton, what a joke that would be. First Obama has to win.

Obama don't get too sure of yourself there, you may get the nomination, but you certainly will not get the White House. You have a very filthy past, and it will surface. AYERS

Awesome.

Forget asking Obama to comment about his pastor. I wish the media would ask Obama about "The Black Value System" he's been practicing & basing his life on for 20 years. How is THAT going to affect his governing of Americans who are unaware of this "Racially Unique Ideal" & aren't black?

Is the media afraid that if that fact is exposed, Sen. Obama "may" lose a large voter base? Let's ask our savior Mr. Gore what he thinks!

Let me see. Al Gore, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Tom Daschle all support Obama. Exactly how is that a new type of leadership and change we can believe in?

A vote for Hillary Clinton means never having to say you're sorry.

Are there any big names that Obama hasn't attempted to link himself in an attempt to distract voters from his own lack of substance?

Mentioning Al Gore, Martin Luther King, Ted Kennedy, etc. is not the same as answering detailed questions about your own accomplishments.

Quote of the Week – maybe the Century

"My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world.
I hope you'll join with me as we try to change it."

- Barack Obama

LMAO

If Michelle Obama has not been proud of America until she
and her husband got all this attention, why doesn`t she tell
HOW she got in Princeton. I know lots of children that couldn`t
possibly think about going to Harvard or Princeton without some
Special Attention!! I really don`t care for Michelle O`Bama`s or
her husband`s Conceitedness. I watched her PREACHING to a
crowd today and couldn`t help but compare her style to Rev.Wright,
her pastor.
Fay

Why is this a surprise? It seemed obvious that Gore would become head of the EPA (which is one of the Cabinet level administrative positions and is the only one directly related to the environment). His environmental advocacy and prior government experience would make him ideally suited for the position.

I have no doubt that Hillary would also offer Gore the job if elected. People are over analyzing this. Gore IS the best person for the job, so obviously Obama (and most likely Clinton) would give it to him. Yes, as in all things there is a political angle, but that is not what is driving the decision.

Obama is a joke. Why doesn't he just go tell some more lies about his parents or JFK? Or perhaps he could just run another false ad.

As a life long Democrat, I am tired of the bickering. John McCain is probably going to get my vote. I would vote for Hillary based on her actions in Congress. I have no knowledge of O.bama's actions in the Senate. Since O'bama has the nomination Mc Cain is the man

Let me see. Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Al Gore, Tom Daschle all Obama supporters. Exactly what kind of change does that represent?

TO: The Tax Man Commeth.

People are just looking for something negative to say. They just can't help it. Don't let them get to you Obama supporters.

You know, when Sen. Obama becomes President, he will really have a responsibility to surround himsef with top notch people. Sen. McCain already has his list of twenty possible people.

Unlike some on this blog (The Austrian) I think Al Gore has a lot to offer. You must be a Clinton supporter. They will regret that they turned their back on him during his run for president. Of course Bill Clinton only supports people when they are useful to him. These back-stabbers have more dead bodies in their wake than anybody. Gore better be careful or they will sick Mr. Carville on him. PATHETIC!

All you well mannered, well bred, brillant, gramitically correct and politically correct Obama people.

Now if Obama and the rest of you would just let Florida and Michigan votes count and let the rest of the states vote as well – then we could say you are also "Constitutionally" correct as well!!!!!

HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!

This type of forum almost always reminds me how many idiots there are in the U.S. Why wouldn't Obama value Gore's leadership on climate change issues? It's a no brainer. All this intolerance has got to stop.

So what now? Obama's trying to make Gore endorse him. It's a response meant to woo him. VOTE HILLARY 08!

People should read what Obama said.
He did not suggest the VP spot for Gore. He said he would gladly include him in his administration. THAT means he would offer him something appropriate to his interests in the enviroment and dealing with global warming etc. It could mean a cabinet post or as heading a special federal initiative or in charge of a Federal agency or as a special advisor to the President etc etc etc. This is a sign of respect for Gore and openness to his message on global warming.
This is obviously a response to a question specifically asking him about whether Gore could play a role in the administration.
Hopefully sneer-posters can stick to the subject for their comments.

Hillary and republicans please stick to the issue! He never said VP and he's not arrogant enough to say he thought the election would be over by super tuesday. Please give me a break, he's a very humble and gracious man. He really could have destroyed Hillary by now.

This is truly a joke! The highly qualified Al Gore needs to serve UNDER this inexperienced Senator?? I don't think so Obama.

Obama is totally blank, Obama 08 will lead America to worst than Bush. Go Obama 08

What we need is Gore to be President and Obama to be his private Secretary. Then he might learn something instead of always about good thing others say.

Who cares who he would consider as part of his cabinet??? Maybe he'll get rev Wright to! Obama is an inexperienced racist America hater with NO original thoughts or ideas. If he wins, America loses.

As a foreign observer, the issue of climate change is the most important aspect of this race for me, because America must take a lead on the issue for anything to be accomplished.

I am glad to hear that Al Gore will be offered a role in an Obama administration and I would hope that Hillary Clinton and John McCain (who both talk about combating climate change) would do something similar if either of them become president.

NObama, right on with your comment. There is no way that Al Gore will ever do this. He is way too smart for that. Al Gore does not need Senator Obama for anything. He is doing perfectly well all by himself.

Just the arrogance of Obama is truly amazing. He is so stuck on himself it is really sickening. This man is NOT PRESIDENTIAL MATERIAL.

As NObama said, it is time for John Edwards and Al Gore to endorse Hillary Clinton. Then, maybe Obamarama will finally shut up for once.

Let's go Pennsylvania, Indiana, North Carolina and beyond and make Hillary Clinton our nominee for President. She is the most qualified, intelligent, and has the experience to turn our country around.

GO HILLARY 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama has great foresight. That's what leadership is all about. Hillary is good looking at focus groups, polls, and then shamelessly pandering. She's a weak candidate and can only ride ole' Slick's coattails for so long!

Seriously, if she was any sort of leader, most of us wouldn't know who Obama is.
But since we do – TEXANS FOR OBAMA!

Thanks Hill!

Way to go! I have been waiting for Al Gore to enter the picture. Obama is a very smart man. He will pick the brightest people to be part of his team when he is PRESIDENT. Now, how about John Edwards and Bill Richardson? They need places in the Obama administration. I can't wait until 1-20-09 when we get a CLEAN slate!

I'm afraid that I think Gore will refuse almost any job, especially VP. He's just in another field. I wish he endorses Obama so the two can work together in two different capacities to save the planet.

Obama '08

Sounds as though Senator Obama is taking possession of the presidency already. In reality, I would imagine that both he and Senator Clinton would accept counsel from Al Gore on environmental matters. But this makes headlines ... as though Obama's hasn't gotten enough of a free ride from the media already.

What was Obama supposed to say? "No way! I wouldn't touch that hack Gore with a ten foot pole!"

Nobody wanted Gore to run for President more than I did. If he had, he would be the nominee today and we'd all be talking about what a cinch it would be that he will beat McCain in November.

Unfortunately for America, Gore didn't choose that path. I think it's a shame he didn't, but don't blame Obama if Gore made a bad choice.

Any President, be it Obama, Clinton or McCain, should be honored to have Al Gore serve as head of the EPA, or Secretary of the Interior, to pick two good examples.

Is that a skinny tie Gore is wearing?

People, People, People!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama didn't say he wanted Gore to be his Veep!

READ-READ-READ!

GOODNESS!

PSSSSSSSSS – CNN – you may want to explain in this article what a Cabinet post is for your readers. Judging by some of these comments, people might not be sure you aren't talking about some sort of furniture Obama is interested in.

sivananthi....Hillary didn't like Gore, and he & Tipper dispised her...what makes you think he was going to endorse her?

Obama has the audacity to hope, Gore would consider being on a ticket with him. In second place, (LMAO) Obama is so stupid, he didn't even leave his name on the ballot in Michigan, wised up for Florida after he saw Hillary was smart to leave hers on in Michigan. He then campaigned for the voters in Michigan to vote uncommitted if they wanted to vote for him. What a loser, lies about Pharmaceutical contributers, lies about big oil, lies about his preacher, lies about Rezko. His lies out number Hillarys, big time. Why can't people see him for what he is, a waste of skin.

So mush hate and anger from both sides. so sad!!! clinton supporters say they will vote for Mccain. obamas side says the same if there person is not the chosen one. BOTH SHOULD DROP OUT !!!!!!![ that was a joke. ] LEADERS LEAD a president is only as good as those around them .the real WORK is done by those who support the vision or mission .

Just a another day in the life of the Democratic party.

Obama 08

Why would Gore want anything to do with Obama. He has his own life and is doing great.

Too bad Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" is just a cycle of the earth. It's easy for anybody to make a small change look big when you change the scale of your chart.

political posteuring on BO's part! WHatever!

Gosh, I wonder how many cabinet "or higher" spots Obama has been promising. All these pictures of him with various endorsers look like they just said nod, nod, wink, wink. Except Gore doesn't seem to be in this picture. Gore has money, a cause, everything he needs whether you agree with him or not–what can Obama offer him?

Obama insults Al Gore!

Hmm, maybe he should offer him Secretary of Energy? Secretary of the Interior? National Park Service? I imagine most of those administrations have Bush's oil friends in them. Could be a good change of pace for the sake of the environment.

Wow, he is already picking his cabinet! What is next? Color schemes for his White House bedroom?
Of course he wants Gore, anything to make him look better. It isn't like anyone has come out and said they don't want Gore. And I wonder if that position for Bill will still be available at the end of all this if Obama suceeds?
And I have yet to hear Gore endorse him. I can say I want Sandra Day O'Connor and George Clooney in my cabinet, but it doesn't mean anything either!

This is ridiculous. How arrogant can you be Obama!!

Luke my dear,i hope you are reading this.Obama was answering a simple question and gave his sincere answer. And talking about him saying any thing to win Gore`s endorsement,have you been listening to the Clintons? Tell me;who said the pledged delegates are not required to stick to their commitments?Whose supporter went all that low to call someone 'judas'? wake up.

Chill out everyone...Obama was ASKED a question by a woman that was in the audience during a campaign rally. He answered it, just because some of you don't like his answer, you whine like babies....

Grow up!!

Another example how Obama says what he thinks you want to hear.... There are three candidates but the women is the only one talking about a plan. GO HILL

Why would Gore want to be on his cabinet? He's been VP before so I doubt he would want that role again. Seems there is some other motive behind these words. Not sure what it is but I don't trust Obama. Where is Mechelle these days?

This is good news! I love Al Gore!

I'm sure everybody would be glad to have Gore on thier team, he is a very smart, very experienced politician, but I doubt Gore wants back into politics, he can do more out of it I believe.

When Hillary is chosen as the noiminee at the convention, she should ask John Edwards to be her VP.At least he has brains, Obama doesn't. President Gore has already been there, and I don't think he would go there again. Watch as Obama cries when Hillary ,the best is chosen.

Wow....is BO trying to get an endoresement???? Good luck with that...

GO HILLARY!!!! Anyone see the NEW Quinnepiac POLLS.....No story from the media?????
HILLARY BEATS McCAIN NATIONALLY IN FLORIDA, PENNSYLVANIA AND OHIO!!!!!!!!!!!!! By GOOD amounts!!!!! McCAIN BEATS BO IN FL!!!!!!!!!
WHOO HOO!!!

Who said anything about Gore being his VP? Read the story first, then comment. And to the person who said Obama should be under Gore: unfortunately Gore isn't on the ticket, so why shouldn't he be utilized in some other way? And as for Obama saying anything to get elected... *cough*Bosnia*cough*. I don't understand why we all can't come together and realize that every candidate has a darker, more devious side. But some are much worse than others.

Go Alcore, The clintons think everyone owes them. No one wants 4yrs of Clintons in the White House, Because Bill owes her something by promising her a gate to the white house by calling in favors with his friends. So if any more indorsement are out there ,go with your own judgement not the Clinton machine. They already left enough stains on the White House. Lets start fresh.

I give you the second sign that our country will become a socialist state if this guy is elected.

Good job Obamabots....good job

Foolish sheep.

"..asked at a campaing event.." He didn't come out and say it, trying to pander to people, did he?

He was asked a question and he gave a logical answer. People create their own spin in their infantile minds.

why would BHO want Al Gore the VP of Clinton with 8 years of experience in the white house to be in his cabinet. Oh just global warming...Obaba u r against experience go get Oprah, Wright and 50 cents for your cabinet

Did anyone read the article? Obama was asked if he would "consider Gore for his cabinet". What was he suppose to say? There is a big difference from Obama bring up the subject himself and simply answering a question.

This man will do and say anything just to get elected. I think he would also sell his soul just to get into the White House. How you people cannot see that this is just a slick jerk who would do anything to get there. I think all you Obama supporters will eventually get very disappointed if he gets elected. I give him about 1 year before everybody gets fedup of him maybe not even that long. He is even spending 3 x what Hillary is spending in advertising and all this is wsted money. I wonder who else he has promised positions to? I am sure alot of people are going to really find out that what said in his campaign promises will not happen.

Hillary keep on with your campaign because I know you can pull this off.

Don't be so obvious obama, you think this is going to cinch the nomination for you. Good grief you are so transparent it is scarey. Is this supposed to conter Elizabeth Edwards endorsement of Hillary's health plan. Sad Sad little man.

This is hysterical!

Everyone here is talking about how horrible Obama is for saying something nice about Bill Clinton and something else nice about Al Gore. The comment about Bill sounded respectful to me – he said there are "few more talented people" than Bill Clinton?

How can you people turn this into arrogance and insult? What was Obama supposed to say – "Al Gore sucks and I wouldn't want him near my cabinet even though I care about the environment?" Get a life people.

Why Gore is more qualified then obama

I wouldn't be surprised if Al Gore endorsed Obama over Hillary, his job was more like 3# once you add the HIllary factor. I also wouldn't be surprised if they kick the Clintons off the democratic party, because Hillary is in no mood to give up, just like Huckabee... Sigh, makes you want to vote Independent.

Do people actually read these articles before they respond? It seems like in most comments that the details of the article are completely ignored in the views of the poster. It is important in this election that we pay attention to what is actually going on, and not be clouded by our partisanship.

Gore would be a great president or VP, but I suspect this quote is being taken out of context by the reporter. Gore has been clear that he's not interested in the presidency, much less the VP role, and Obama knows that.

Obama will make a good president, but wouldn't Hillary make a great Secretary of Health & Human Services??

Al Gore is a real honest American Citizen. Very soon he will endorse Hillary Clinton for President, because he knows she have experience,and also lived inside the White House for 8 years. Hillary and Gore are pro the same issues.
Hillary for President 2008!!!!

Would like to know why Al Gore did not have President Bill Clinton out campaigning for him when he was running for president.

His absence and endorsement was noted by many. Was it the Monica issue and that Mr. Gore was a family man that did not approve of Bill's affairs? Was it a policy issue? Was it to distance himself from a possible impeachment?

What is the real reason? Mr. Gore please help the voters to know the man you worked for better.

What an opportunist this guy is.
I can’t wait for America to see Obama’s true face.

I think Senator Edwards and former Vice President Gore both agree the Clinton is most qualified, but they do not wish to stir up more trouble by announcing support for Clinton. Their silence, when many Obama supporters are pressing through the media for Clinton to step aside, is telling. What would happen to Democratic players such as Pelsoi and Dean if both Edwards and Gore come out endorsing Clinton. I think it would shake them up and the nomination processs up a lot. It may be the shot in the arm this process needs. Maybe then we will see Michigan and Florida treated fairly. By fairly I mean a true representation of the these States' voters wishes, not some made up solution.

What is wrong with you people? Who wouldn't want someone who is internationally recognized as a credible source on climate change, one that many folks feel like they can believe, to be part of their group to deal with the issue?
Its like saying, you don't want Lebron on your team, cause you don't like Cleveland.
Sometimes I read this stuff and I think it wouldn't matter who is in the white house if the average american citizen were like some of these posters. Madness, madness.

Omg...........just what this country needs. Gore sitting on the sidelines along with Obama. We WILL be bankrupt while these two fill their own pockets on the "global warming scare tactics". I am sorry, but as it has been reported, Gore shot down hundreds of scientists with claims that disapproved Gore's thinking. Now we have this. By the way, I do not support any of the main candidates.

This is why this country is in the situation it's in, look at you people. VP, GO Hillary... BLAH! Can't you read, can't you understand the advantage of consulting elders of all parties, and others to form precise plan and decision? It's not a ploy, it's not for votes, get a grip!
I don’t' even support Barack... some of you can't even spell it right!

i don't care who he choose, this country need good head with big idea. To make this clear, i do not think Obama is asking Al Gore fir VP, but a memeber of his team, which is not an insult, but a privilage.

HE'S TALKING ABOUT GORE SERVING ON THE CABINET TO TACKLE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES...

NOT ABOUT GORE BEING VICE-PRESIDENT!!!

ITS OBVIOUS ALL YOU "VP" POSTERS DIDN'T READ THE ARTICLE!!!

As a former Clinton supporter, I have to admit Obama is a little confused but I am sure he will find the WRIGHT way!

Gore has no time for politics now, he is on an important mission, informing the world of Global warming and all it's dangers.

Why not? Gore has sold the world one of the biggest lies ever told, and if he gets Obama elected, he will have sold America the second biggest lie ever told.

Doesn't matter if Obama is Junior to anyone ... he's still getting more votes than anyone has before!

Besides, remember people (americans have such terrible memories ...) that JFK was also a Soph (or Jr?) senator who beat out the then Vice President.

LIz from Pittsburg and the other ... read up on your history before you make such silly and uninformed comments! Geeez.

And if Hillary said she wanted Gore in her cabinet?

You Hillary Supporters would be foaming at the mouth to shove it in Obama's face. Pathetic how desperate you've become.

I am so tired of hearing others say things like he will do anything just for endorsement. Would you be saying the same thing if Hillary was approached with the same question. Why don't most of you just admit that you can't see this Country having a Black man for president . But you know what would really make some of you undercover racist cringe. If he does win the Presidency, and Richardson the only hispanic Senator becomes his Vice-President. Now swallow that pill

Obama sympathisers, let them talk. Obama will win in November. If God is on your side, who can be against you? I think Obama and Clinton will mend fences sooner than we think, and we will have them both. Chill out guys. We will as a united team win this thing, much to Sen.Clinton's delight, because she will be a part of the team. We love them both, no force and fight. Obama is our next President, with Clinton on his side.
JD

I love watching all the Hillhaters come out spitting and foaming at the mouth after yet again NOT READING the fine print so to speak.

I'll give them a break though considering Obama got another SD endorsement, is closing that "huge" gap in PA, may have had upwards of 30M plus donated to his campaign by his faithful and hardworking supporters, all topped off by the FACT that he did win TX afterall (since it's about the delegates right?)

Lemon sucking is to be expected when all your savior can do is regurgitate another 3:00 a.m. but still hasn't released those tax records. LOL

Please people, enough with the arrogant comments, don't you think we have had enough arrogant comments from Hillary lately.

Barack is playing nice with Gore, of course, he won't be in the his Cabinet!

Barack has this baby locked up. For those of you still on cloud nine, Hillary only gets a percentage of the delegates not all of them, do the math!! HRC would have to win 75-80% of the popular vote just to catch him. HRC supporters have been duped into a losing cause, talk about a pipe dream, a candidate with the most delegates never goes to the convention and loses, unless you live in a communist country!!

Wake up and smell the coffee, the superdelegates will put this to bed on July 1. After HRC loses a couple more primaries, put a fork in her, she's done.

If HRC was ready on Day 1, she wouldn't have lost 30 out of 40 primaries. Her arrogance finally caught up to her.

To win the GE, the little states count too!

HRC says she is now Rocky, she has made a mockery of the political process. As a long standing Democratic, a son of a union worker, HRC take your ball and go home! The game is over and you lost fair and square!!

Obama 08

BO, BO, Gore has a table of his own. It is bigger and better than yours.
Just read HIS book and get your self some other person for your table.
Gore is a Nobel Prize winner! He did the VP thing, he goes up, not down with you dumbo!

This guy relies on hype for his campaign, Clinton relies on whining for her campaign, McBain seems like he's going to continue the policies of Bush...

all 3 knuckleheads... it's sad nobody who actually cares can ever get into the position for the job and cleanup America and not only the economy, but put money towards helping the homeless and not prolonging a war which has exhausted our soldiers. All these politicians do is talkup what people want to hear and people enjoy it like premium candy. It's pathetic! McBain is going to defeat whoever comes out of the Dem side, which is without a doubt Obama. The only pleasure in that will be Obama stumbling in a debate when he has to answer questions rather than dodge them.

I don't know where people are getting the idea of Gore for VP – it wasn't anywhere in the article. Gore would be great in anybody's cabinet. Hillary would say the exact same thing. Any Democrat running would absolutely have to consider Gore in the cabinet. I don't see how this makes Obama arrogant or 'star struck'...

This would be an awesome addition to an Obama future administration. Who better to consult the president on the issue of climate change than a man who has dedicated a significant portion of his life to the study.
OBAMA 08

Obama was asked a question, and he answered it. He didn't just say this out of the blue to try to "suck up" to Gore. Again, since the Clintonites probably won't get it, HE WAS ASKED A DIRECT QUESTION, SO HE ANSWERED IT!

Kinda how Clinton, after saying she was going to avoid commenting on Wright, decided to comment when she was ASKED a direct question at a rally. Hmmmm?

OBAMA 08

For those who say "Obama will say anything..." need to take a long hard look/ listen to their fave candidate...actually it won't even take THAT long! Hillary would sell her soul for this nomination. say anything and probably do anything. Be fair, honest, and realistic. We all know who is more likely to lie...but i guess "that depends on what ur definition of 'is' is..."

Obama wants Al Gore on What Team? Does Obama need someone with the "Clinton" Years of Experience ? All that inside the Washington Loop Experience ? When You come to a "Fork in the Road" Take IT !

He's not talking about making Gore his V.P. He is talking about having him in his cabinet.

In the game of politics, getting support from influential people is smart.

Beats using fictional characters (HRC and Rocky) will she chant Adrian when she wins, or maybe she will remember that she was not in the movie at all.

It is not how long a person serves there country while in government that makes them a great leader it is how there character will react to an event and the will of the people that determines it.

Having another old 'set in there ways' person that will react like Bush will leave everyone in the state that the US is seeing right now. So JM thanks for fighting for the country but we need change and a non cold war mentality to strengthen the US

Although Gore was Clinton's VP for 8 years, it's interesting he still hasn't come out to endorse Hillary yet. Goes to show that even their "friends" don't like the Clintons. I've decided to vote for Obama since even Gore won't go Clinton. He must know something I don't (in addition to the sleazy hate-filled campaign she's been running).

Gore for VP?
Sounds pretty great, but honestly
I don't think so, probably Secretary of (Renewable)Energy or something like that-

to The Austrian,
i advise that you go read some scientific papers, instead of what the oil industry tells you. indeed, perhaps attending high school would be of benefit to you. the world is getting warmer, with or without human input, yes. however, because of human(largely US, chinese and european) carbon dioxide emissions from cars and power plants and such, the heating process is taking place 90 times faster and will result in a global temperature rise almost 300% greater than any previous rise. and thats if we stopped all global carbon emissions TOMORROW.

stop being a naive pseudo-christian, right-wing, NRA extolling waste of oxygen, grow up, and smell the CO2

Do people read anymore? He did not say he wants Gore for VP. He said that he would have him as apart of his "CABINET" and that he would have him handle issues dealing with the climate. Maybe if people read into the facts and not the hype our country would be able to function better. Reading is fundamental.

First of Hillary supporters, Obama doesn't need to try to whoo anybody or try to buy them... if they were going to endorse Hillary they would have done it already,.... as you can see they are coming in 1 by 1 on their own... maybe Hillary need to try to buy some of them b/c it doesn't seem like anyone is endorsing her....oh i forgot she can't pay the bills she already has...

OBAMA 08..... Hillary supporters better jump aborad b 4 its 2 late....

Obama! " I could forget a face, forget a place, I could forget name, forget a game. I could even forget myself. But forgeting to vote for you.....I will never forget. You are our next PRESIDENT.

Hillary! it's time you seat back and stop wasting your time. The game is over!

Does this mean that Obama will be in the next Futurama movie? Animation ads will be quite interesting to see!

How is Barack arrogant by saying this? I would pick Al Gore to tackle the issue of global warming any day. If Hillary said this, I would think it was a smart thing to say as well. But since Barack said it and not her, he's arrogant. You Hillary folks are the most negative, closed-minded, say anything apologists I've ever seen.

I think this said he is going to change Washington. But Gore was a washington based democrat and even served as Bill Clinton's number 2 . A part Obama has been criticising and says he wants to change Washington. Does this man knows what he is doing ? I guess not he just to win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and just be the first Black American president that is all he want.Anything that comes after that doesnt concern him, he just to make history!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A VOTE FOR OBAMA IS A VOE FOR DOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Al Gore is practically a rockstar. What makes Obama think Gore would play second fiddle to someone younger and less experienced and qualified than he is? Obama is delusional.

My God thats why im not voting for Obama H. Baraka.... and by the way didn't Obama say that he wants new people in his cabinet....

Hillary or McCain....

Perfect and logical choice. Those who think it is arrogant don't understand anything to good politics.

He'll say anything to get praise. What a loser.

He is so arrogant

Like he would want to work for you In back in Illinois.

Barrack... Tame the arrogance. Please!!!

Obama are stupe. Gore will be president of United State Hillary will be V president . You need go back where you from.

Dommy Obama!!!

I like doug. OBAMAH as the chant loudly. YES WE CAN and YES WE WILL.

Obama 2008 but not Gore in the ticket. I like Gore as defendant of Climate change that's it.

Do you HRC people even read the actual story?

This isn't about a VP position. It is about a cabinet position.

And Obama didn't bring it up, someone specifically asked him if he would consider Gore for his cabinet.

RTFA, please.

Thomas For Hillary April 2nd, 2008 4:03 pm ET

More arrogant by the day I see.
----------–

Arrogant? What's more arrogant than being in second place and offering the front runner the VP position. Do you actually follow politics or just offer hate for Obama?

What is wrong with that, if Obama is need to bring back a person who is able to work for the American people. Don't judge him because he is a rival to Hillary but as a person who will serve America.

Obama 2008

More distortions about Obama. The good thing is that most people aren't idiots and can see through the sham. July 1, 2008 is your deadline, so enjoy it while you can.

No, Obama is not being presumptious or arrogant. At a town-hall meeting in PA, Obama was asked if he would tap the former vice president for his Cabinet, or an even higher level office, to handle global warming. He answered yes re: Global Warming. He stated that since he has not won the nomination, he couldn't answer a VP candidate. Was he suppose to reply with "It's none of your business? " C'mon, if you are going to post, get your facts straight and stop reading in between the lines.

Al Gore's entire campaign is based on sensationalism and doomsday dogma, not on actual scientific evidence.

How stupid are you???

Obama is truly ordained. He will prevail.

PS – nobody suggested he pick Gore as his running mate. The question was whether he would ask him to join his Cabinet.

For those of you who do not know the difference, Cabinet members are folks like the Secretary of Energy and Secretary of the Interior – both posts that could use someone savvy about climate change.

Obama is just a joke..... He sold out his mentor, the Rev., for his political aspiration, and now he is is begging for Gore's endorsement. I keep saying it... America, be careful this man will sink us all!!!

Hillary should pack her bags and leave the country. And take all of her supporters with her!!

I love this. Gore was not elected president by not having votes counted in Florida. Sound familiar Senator Obama? Do you really think Al Gore will go back into politics? He is a smashing success without you.

It amazes me how so many readers (or one reader posting several times) can turn such a benign article into something so ugly.

No matter whom the next president is, I'm sure that Gore would be thrilled to be combating climate change as part of the new president's administration.

To all the HRC supporters...doesn't it make you wonder what kind of people the Clintons really are, not the public personalities, when the people who know them best are not supporting her.

Austrian, Please don't be so naive about CLIMATE CHANGE. Do you know about Discovery Channels or something like that? Come on. You are the schmuck.!!!

Obama '08

People here are simply idiots...Obama wants Gore for cabinet. How is that a lie? Does it say Gore for VP? Exactly!!!! Stop being idiots and stop being Hilibots!!!

It's pretty clear that most of the Clintonians don't bother to read articles that are in favor of Obama. They just whine based off the title of the article, if you had a little more that a kid's IQ, you would actually read the article and not provide blind criticism. We already know you HATE the man but please.

Cool down! The man was ASKED if he would consider giving Gore a job in his administration. I am sure Hillary would give exactly the same answer is she were asked – YES, in a heartbeat.

DUH!

Gore has said in the past that he will never serve in a cabinet level position in someone's administration. Obama is just trying to attract votes. It will never happen.

Change we can believe in? I have great trust and respect to Barack Obamas ability to do a real change to your country, but mixing up change with the Clinton administration (Gore), now, is that a good idea, I don't think so. All i've heard and seen about Obama leads me to the conclusion that Barack would be well served in keeping himselves far away from the Clinton White House.

I think the important note to take from here is that Barack Obama is looking for experts in their respective fields to help make positive change in this country. It's not about slamming Hillary or lying or being arrogant. It's about getting the best information available to proceed with decision making and to surround oneself with the top experts in their fields. It would be foolish to do otherwise.

De javu, i have been taking of this great idea, over the last couple of years. Its called true revelation!
OBAMA/Gore 08 – 016

I'm consistently amazed by the level of ignorance that is depicted in these comments. The man said he would offer him a place on his cabinet. Not make his vice president.

Having former vps, and presidents on your staff would be a good thing. Not that many would take him up on that offer(why go back to work?)

Bunch of fools.

so interesting that the spinsters have invaded... but shame on them if weren't able to manipulate this forum to their ends. all comments shut off at 4:14 like a faucet. could it be that they are posting on the next ticker update?

Obama Haters,

Give it a rest already. There's no logic in your disdain for the man.

Barack Obama for President '08.

I'm amazed at the comments about Obama being arrogant...acting like a President. THIS WAS A RESPONSE TO A QUESTION!!! You guys need to read.

Oh and by the way. I'll take those tax returns now Hillary.

Seriously, read all these entries... ya think you guys are playing into the media a bit?? And reading too much into what Obama's statement really was... C'mon. Let's not make something out of nothing. It seems to be all we're doing these days... Hilary is good at it.

OBAMA!

Do you HillBilly people know how to read???

Obama never said anything about Gore being his VP! He was RESPONDING to a question given to him. He would have Gore in his cabinet dealing with global warming. Geez, you people need a life!

I promise you, if HillBilly would have said this, you people would be drooling at the thought and praising it as the second coming. Get a hold of yourselves!

What makes you think that it is HillBilly's birth given right to be our president? You people are making it sound like this is owed to her! Get over it! She blew it! She cant even handle her campain finances so what makes you think she can handle our's???

google paul vs. clinton. do your homework. jump on the train because with or without you, Obama will be in the White house. Deal with it.

It is nice that Senator Obama and Mr. Gore are such good friends and they chat regularly. Offering him a post is way to premature. He has forgotten he has to win the Democratic Nomination first.

And he has far from done that.....

Keep on trying and dreaming Obama.Your style of begging for endorsment is cheap.Keep on hatching blunders here blunders there!

ARROGANT? Please enlighten us and tell us which President or which polititian to run for President has not been arrogant.
Give me a break. I have discovered that most of the people who comment on these blogs about the democrats are not HRC supporters as they pretend, they are Conservatives or whatever they call themselves now. (I guess reactionaries is a better fit for them).

That's right people...Give it up Billary....It's Over, the fat lady sung a long time ago....

OBAMA 2008!!!!!!!!

Great strategy Camp Obama by stating thae he would offer bill a position. After all Bill's the reason 70 percent of Hillary's supporters vote for her because the guy is a economic guru.

Obama 08

Luke, go use the force or something. All politicians ask other influential politicians for endorsements. It's part of the process! Get over it.

keep dreaming obama..

floridian democrats for mccain..if hillary is out

It seems the Clintonistas are getting meaner and stupider by the day. Or perhaps those are just the people left after anyone with brains and a heart has seen the depths the Clintons will go to in her 'All about ME' campaign. I hope you people go through with your 'I'll never vote for Obama pledge because he stole what was rightfully Hillary's'. Please, the Democratic party doesn't need fools like you.

Since when is it rude to offer someone a job? A respectable job at that.

What would some of you folks have said if it were Hillary how said so?

Good for you Hillary?

The article does not state that Gore is his choice for VP.

Apparently reading comprehension is not taught in whichever school districts most of you were in.

Welcome to Dick Cheney's America.

Man is this guy arrogant. His head is starting too catch up to his EARS!!!!!

May I remind people that Obama said Gore would have a spot in his administration.... Not that he would be his VP... though I would like to see that.

Also, what self respecting democrat wouldn't want Gore in their administration.

What are you people talking about? There is nothing arrogant about that comment. It was complimentary. He's not naming him VP; in fact, HE'S NOT EVEN TALKING ABOUT BEING A VP. He's talking about bringing on Gore as an advisor. Who wouldn't want that?

It's time for him to be able to at least discuss what his administration might look like. After all, he's the frontrunner for one party's nomination.

Some of these comments are insane.

I

this is why our country is so divided , people with there idiot comments
and have no clue to what 's going on with our enviornment.........Gore woulld surely help opens the eyes of these people who continue to pollute this planet and rob it of it's natural resources ......do you really think that Mcsame or Billary has the enviornment on there agenda............................not, Obama is thinking long term.............you dummies

OBAMA IS TRYING BLOCK GORE FROM ENDORSING HILLARY CLINTON BY THIS WAY....

WHY DON^T PEOPLE ASK OBAMA TO COMMENT ABOUT HIS PASTOR OR HIS WIFE^S COMMENTS ABOUT AMERICA LIKE THEY DO IT WITH CLINTONS ASKING ABOUT BILLS INTERN.......

I question the intelligence and reading comprehension of many of the people who have posted here already...Obama simply said he would gladly accept Gore as a member of his administration, not as the VP! There was no mention of an Obama/Gore ticket. Try reading the article before posting your wildly speculative and reactionary responses. Also, take some basic grammar lessons.

Obama would SAY anything to get himself nominated.
What a CHANGE... by his words, words, and words....

Gore has been VP before. Why would Gore care to be VP again? OB's words are used to feed fools only, ... Most americans are clever than that...

Just to claify he did not say he wanted Gore for VP but would be honored to have him on his cabinet...and who wouldn't?

Why are Hillary supporters so angry today? Florida is being counted. I'm an Obama supporter, and I'm very happy about the news in Florida. Now we've got HRC supporters calling Obama all kinds of horrible things, because he answered a question. Is it any wonder why people are getting turned off by this kind of ugliness?

"Asked at a campaign event if he'd consider Gore for his cabinet, Obama immediately said he would."

Of course, he would want Gore, who wouldn't (and you can't say McCain)?

YOU GO OBAMA!! Perfect Choice!!

Sorry HRC fans - your girl is cooked - get over it!!! Let's see what male she tries to immitate next - RAMBO?? Why doesn't she just go buy one - she thinks she has one anyway?

Agree, that Gore should probably not be a part of Obama's cabinet, but he is such a strong and recognized proponent for us to pay attention to what we are doing to damage our own planet, that Obama and other World leaders might want to consult his ideas.

Statements such as the climate changes has nothing to do with our emissions, cutting down rainforests, etc are downright ridiculous, so stop being a lobbyist for ignorance, please...

But Gore himself is a lobbyist now, and he should stick with that. He's doing a good job of using his name to create awareness.

HRC has done what she could, she's an intelligent woman, but – fair and square – Obama is heading for the nomination, and if you are a HRC supporter, the most stupid thing you can do is to get so negative that you go and vote for McCain in the general election. If you do, history will never forgive you!

As Bill said – "Chill out" Hillary fans. Obama was responding to a reporter's question. No one expects Gore to work in Obama's administration after he was elected president. Bush was selected. Gore was elected.

" I will make a commitment that Al Gore will be at the table and play a central part in us figuring out how we solve this [climate change] problem," Obama said.

Hey, Obambi.....it's called "GLOBAL WARMING"!! LOL!!!!!!!

Hillary "Rocky" Clinton .....with you all the way to the Oval office!!!

Steve, you are uninformed. Obama took credit for bills that he minimally supported and not even law yet. Obama does not have the experience and judgement to be a president. He is a very likeable and smart person, but he is not ready. Hillary is Democrats chance of gaining back the whitehouse, otherwise America will have old crancky McCain with the continuation of misinformed Bush doctrine of war.

Mc Cain will destroy Obama in the GE I can see the ads now with McCains 100 years of service to his country and patriotism vs. Obama's wife's comments on her finally being proud of this country and Obama's choice of anti-american, rascist church choices. The swing state's will pick patritism over change. Dem's only chance specially with a long drawn out primary is a split ticket Obama/Clinton Clinton/Obama, or at least someone who Clinton supporters trust. Obama has set himself so far apart he'll make himself a easy target and undecided's will go with old reliable over fear of change. So keep bashing Clinton sure her 45ish percent of Dem's will just be so eager to support your canidate after all the hate Obama supporters spew, doesnt look like change to me looks like a bar fight on any given blog. I guess the Clinton years were'nt that bad if you guys all love Gore so much.

Why should Al Gore accept a cabinet post when he could just sit back and be drafted at the convention for the top job as President and then find a really good VP, I'm thinking Bill Richardson someone without an ego problem like Barack has!!!!!!!!!

As VP he could fly around in Air Force Two and tell us not to drive so much cause burning so much gas is killing the planet... of couse the 747 tends to burn a little more than an SUV....

Heck with it.... I'm in!

HYPOCRACY 08

This article says anything about Gore being VP. What about Energy Secretary?

Obama would SAY anything to get himself nominated.
What a CHANGE... by his words, words, and words....

Gore has been VP before. Why would Gore care to be VP again? OB's words are used to feed fools only, ... Most americans are clever than that...

Hey Al, how about stepping up to the plate and seizing the offer with high honors. We need you to be the leader in the fore front and to fight the fight on global warming.

Obama 08!!!

Well, we know one thing for sure after reading these blogs from all the Clinton supporters and the bloggers hired by the Clinton campaign to flood the blogosphere as "Former Obama Supporters" and the like: There will be more toxins in atmosphere than any other time in history. Bill and Hillary have made more than their share of contributions along with the other weasley campaign operatives and surrogates.

If I were Al Gore I would find this to be extremely offensive!!!

It would be like your son or daughter offering you a position under them. Al Gore can only be at the top of a ticket.

"would that not be too much Gore in Washington. aren't you saying Clinton era was the past, you are for the future…"

Um... excuse me, but Al Gore and Bill Clinton did not converse much during the Clinton Administration and to this day, they are not exactly "buddies." In fact, Bill spends more time working with George H.W. Bush than any other politician, so there you go. Remember the clip in An Inconvenient Truth when Gore blasted Bush Sr. and Clinton for not supporting him in environmental efforts during their presidential terms? Get your facts straight first.

If Obama is president, he is supposed to pick the best people for his cabinet, and the best advisors.... and Gore is the best advisor you can get on alternative energy and climate change. So.... it's actually more about working with smart, forward-thinking people from the past to change the future.

You are going to discredit him for hypothetically picking the best person for the job? Well, that's just illogical thinking.

Hillary Clinton- I am not quiting. I have been in this so long and
I like spending campaign money.

Obama 2008

" I will make a commitment that Al Gore will be at the table and play a central part in us figuring out how we solve this [climate change] problem," Obama said.

Hey...Obanana......it's called – "GLOBAL WARMING" !! Lol!!

Do Obama bashers even read the article before bashing???

To CHERYL,

PAYback to the Clintons is coming. Its called KARMA and it has AL GORE written all over it. Who cares about JOHN EDWARDS he could not even get re-elected in his own STATE .

Why would Al Gore want to be vp for someone who has MUCH less experience than him?

Obama will SAY anything to get himself nominated.
What a change by his WORDS... WORDS....
Everyone knows that Gore has been VP before. Why would Gore care to VP again? OB's words are used to feed fools only...

SORRY OBAMA :...

GORE WON^T FALL FOR CHEAP POLITICS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shame on you Hillary.

did all of the angry/stupid people in the world just start using the internet or something? geez.

Al Gore should never be Obama's VP..he is way ahead of that.

However- I agree that Al Gore should hold a very powerful and significant position in Obama's cabinet when it comes to climate change.

Al Gore has become the symbol for the "clean environment" lately. He can make a difference to the environment.

In my opinion, the media has it so wrong; it's not that Hillary and Obama tend to agree for the most part, Obama agrees with Hillary because he has no plan or clue.

Replay the debates! "The proof is in the pudding." If he becomes the Democrat nominee, he will have to stand on his own to feet when debating against McCain.

Barack wants to bring back Bill's cabinet, although he wants to be Bill.First he offers Bill a post, then he offers one to Al.Is he trying to buy people's support? Is that the reason for all those other losers switching to his side?Mr.Obama I do not think you are ready for this job.You lack loyalty. I have said it before,and I'll say it again-it shows you will have no loyalty to your constituents.You resemble Bush's playhouse.There is only one person capable of undertaking this monumental job of putting this country back – Hillary.

People...get a grip. You really need to slow down and read this article thoroughly. It states, Barack would and does consult Al Gore on CLIMATE CHANGE ISSUES....This is where he would find Al a position in his Cabinet. He didn't say anything about a VP position at all. This world is changing and it is an important issue to most people around the world. Al Gore has a lot of experience in this area. Why wouldn't he consult him. Read People, READ!!!

Look all the candidate have flaws and are all liars and cheats. it is all politics. However, u must pick the least dangerous amongst these candidates and that's Obama. Hate him or love him he is the best for America now.

How can u people actually think that Gore would be a bad VP?

Also y would gore not take a job where he can actually get something done about climate change. Sure his movie helped but a position on obama's cabniet means real work.

OBAMA for 2008 and 2012

Brilliant ..and OB continues to outsmart Billary at every turn

It will take more than PA, FL, & MI for the Co-president Clinton's to steal this election.

A special thank you to yet another wise Democrat , the Gov of Wyoming for seeing the light today !

Obama makes me sick. With all this lovefest from CNN, they'll soon be running a contest to "Win a date with Obama" and Wolf Blitzer, Jack Cafferty, and Chris Matthews will be first in line screaming "pick me!".

Obama is full of BS and he won't make it through the Gen Election – no way Michelle either in the WH.

Reading is Fundamental. 1-800-ABC-DEFG
Who said anything about Vice President?
He didn't promise Gore anything but a spot in his admin to work on the global warming situation.

OBAMA 2008!

Obama will say anything for the endorsment. what a slimeball.

Hillary will triumph

Only the best with Obama.

It's obvious he was simply responding to a question. Anyone who takes Barack to be arrogant from this didnt read the article. He's not implying he's superior to Gore or anything.

Wow! want post my topic. Good choice Obama

Go Obama '08

Barack Obama is sure arrogant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just another Obama trick to win votes. My Gosh, he already thinks he is the President? Can you believe this guy??????????????

Hmmm. It seems the HRC quips are becoming whimpier. Wonder what that means?

Kind of arrogant, isn't it?

Wow! Obama is stealing everything from Hillary. He has stolen Bill Richardson, Al Gore, and even the election.
Anyone but Obama!!

Gore as Secretary of State... powerful position, and ideal for our Nobel prize winner!

Excellent choices! And bring back Samantha Power once this whole ruckus is over. She's a brilliant woman and the #1 person to have at the table dealing with genocide, human rights, and AIDS... if she were involved in this administration, we wouldn't be balking at China right now.

Richardson, Kennedy, Kerry, Peolsi and company
now you offer Gore a position, it looks like that you do
anything to be elected.
why they want you for President?

Hillary 08

Obama is a great judge of character.

Nice we'll soon have a president who will actually do something about global warming.

No, it's time for Gore and Edwards to endorse Hillary Clinton, and send the hot air balloon back to Illi-noise to do the job he was elected to do.

CLINTON '08

Al Gore is one of the finest, I am sure he would be a plus for anyone's administration. Would prefer to see him as President. However he and President Clinton are both very intelligent people and should be able ot put the past behind them and move forward to work together in whatever capacity they could serve to help this country.

PLEASE read the article – it doesn't say VP!! He wants Al Gore to help with the climate change issue for pete's sake.

Great decision on Obama's part. Gore will bring a lot to his cabinet!!!

would that not be too much Gore in Washington. aren't you saying Clinton era was the past, you are for the future...

obama lies and lies and more lies

Obama will do anything to try and get votes. Al Gore would never even consider being Obama's VP? Obama must think we all idiots.

Well if you thought this topic was about Gore being his VP, then you ARE an idiot.

Ouch! As much as I personally respect Al Gore, he stirs emotions which could be used by McCain to attach Obama's policies to address climate change.

That is to say, it might have been wiser to wait until after elected to say that Gore will have a place in his administration.

I believe most people expect(ed) it anyway. No need to give McCain and the head-in-the-ground anti-environmentalists an issue to pursue like Gore's competency as head of the EPA.

Barrack Obama has sponsored two laws that were signed during his tenure in the congress.....

Thanks for your dillegent work Barrack

Al Gore, is cool.

Obama/Gore 08!!!

YES!!!

Great. Gore for vice president should be taken into consideration also.

Sure just as Barack latches himself to anyone he can use. Watch out, Al. Barack will probably add his name to the credits of An Inconvenient Truth.

More arrogant by the day I see.

Obama, who we were first for, but not now. He probably would like to have Gore for help if he is elected. Obama does not have the experience he should to be running our country. Another thing is that he appears to be 'star struck', which again, is not good for a president. Think about this America.

thanks barack

It is time for Gore, Edwards and the others to climb down from the fence and get the Clintons to pack up and go home.

I would love to see Gore help with the global/ climate change as its important to the enviroment. Just another reason I am proud to support Obama as he makes good judgement and great choices.

Obama 08

haha! Are you kidding me?

Mr. Obama.. I guess he does not even know who he is. He thought he will be next president already?

BTW. Gore was VP and #2 before. How come could you have Gore to be #3.4.5.6...............?

What a JoKE!

Please not Gore, I'm a huge Obama supporter, voted for a democrate for the first time... but this alone makes me rethink my vote. Gore is the rich mans Michael Moore. Just lost my vote.

Gore would be an amazing part of an Obama administration.

That would be an unstoppable ticket!
2 honest, bright, smart, intellectual, tough people!

Please folks Gore had his opportunity. Time to move on. I really don't understand Senator Obama relationship with the typical political folks....I thought he was for change or does he plan to change the folks that are supporting him?

I find this Obama thing laughable. He is a "Junior" to Al Gore, he should be "under" Al Gore. The nerve!!!!!

Oh brother...spare me Barak. First he says he will give Bill Clinton a job, now it's Al Gore. Obama is always about the flavor of the month.

Obama courts anybody who he thinks he can use in some way to fortify his value as a nominee – it's been Bloomberg now Gore and a few in between and more to come. Obama – there's no there, there.

Heavenly Choir: Obama, Obama, OBAMA
HRC: Shut up!

Hillary it's over Babe. Cheryl you backed a loser

OBAMA 08

Obama will do anything to try and get votes. Al Gore would never even consider being Obama's VP? Obama must think we all idiots.

Oh, Obama, you're such a schmuck. Al Gore's entire campaign is based on sensationalism and doomsday dogma, not on actual scientific evidence. Yes, the earth is getting warmer, but it's not because of anything we're doing. Did you know that the National Security Council was worried about Global COOLING back in 1974 and were freaked out about that like we are today?

You will be a puppet to the lobbyists, just like Bush. The only difference will be which lobbyists you pay attention to.

HRC : I'm not quiting! Iam in this for the long haul because the people deserve a choice – they deserve a president who's ready on DAY 1.

OBAMA: Give it a rest Hillary then continue Swearing Ceremonies
