10 Questions for Al Gore

(2 of 2)

We should ratify it, but this will be very difficult so long as Bush and Cheney remain in the White House and there is a narrow majority in the Senate.

Speaking of that narrow majority, there is talk that your former running mate, Joe Lieberman, will defect to the Republican Party. Do you think that's likely?

I'd be surprised, but I really don't know. Joe has always been a leader on the issue of global warming. It's one of several issues where he would find himself in uncomfortable company if he changed parties.

You have stated repeatedly that you are not currently planning to run for President in 2008. Do you have a more creative denial?

I don't have any plans to run. Nor do I have any creative denials. I'm using the same ones. They'll soon be out on DVD.
