"Al Gore" Wikipedia (via DBPedia)
Albert Arnold "Al" Gore, Jr. (born March 31, 1948) served as the 45th Vice President of the United States from 1993 to 2001 under President Bill Clinton. He is currently an author, businessperson, and American environmental activist who starred in the 2006 documentary An Inconvenient Truth, which won an Academy Award in 2007. Gore also wrote the book ', which won a Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album in February 2009. He was involved in American politics for 24 years, serving first in the U.S. House of Representatives (1977–85) and later in the U.S. Senate (1985–93) before becoming vice president. Gore was the Democratic nominee for president in the 2000 presidential election. He won the popular vote by approximately 500,000 votes, but ultimately lost the electoral college to Republican candidate George W. Bush when the legal controversy over the Florida election recount was eventually settled in the U.S. Supreme Court by a 5–4 margin in favor of Bush—the only time in history the Court may have determined the outcome of a presidential election. Gore is the recipient of a number of awards. He and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change were jointly awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007. In addition, he received a Primetime Emmy Award for Current TV in 2007, a Webby Award in 2005, and was named as a runner-up for Time's 2007 Person of the Year. He is currently the founder and chair of Alliance for Climate Protection, the co-founder and chair of Generation Investment Management, the co-founder and chair of Current TV, a member of the Board of Directors of Apple Inc. , and a senior advisor to Google. Gore is also a partner in the venture capital firm, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, heading that firm's climate change solutions group. In addition, he is on the faculty of Middle Tennessee State University as a visiting professor, and was a visiting professor at Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, Fisk University, and the University of California, Los Angeles.

Is Hillary Clinton the New Old Al Gore?
THE Democrats can't lose the White House in 2008, can they? Some 13 months before Election Day, the race's dynamic seems immutable. Americans can't wait to evict the unpopular president and end his disastrous war. As the campaign's poll-tested phrasemaking constantly reminds us, voters crave change above all else. That means nearly any Democrat... More »

You are 100% correct in that the public does view Al Gore as a self effacing overtly braggadocio fool. Anything he says is bound to be taken with a truckload of salt, based on the aforementioned.
Chosen Answer by Sophie
The jig is up, baby! Al Gore is a dishonest anti-American opportunist. I hope eventually he'll be charged with something. Or another.
Chosen Answer by zahbudar
I have no idea. However, he misses the point entirely when it comes to Global Warming. Sure he says it is happening, but he does not have a good solution for the problem in my view. Switch to renewable fuels? Okay, nice idea you say...What happens to the price of CORN then? I will tell you. Corn goes right up through the ceiling in cost. And, along with that goes the price of all animal feeds made from corn, along with the price for all cereals and other human foods using CORN. And, Ethanol based gasoline does not cost less, it costs more because it requires new refinery equipment, plumbing and filtering equiment to make it. If you want to stop Global Warming you must get rid of BLACK roofs, and change them to WHITE roofs. If you want to stop Global Warming you must stop paving the Earth's surface with BLACK ASPHALT and use a lighter colored material. If you want to reduce the amnount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere you MUST begin planting new evergreen shrubs everywhere there is vacant space and toss in drip irrigation for them. Look at how much vacant space there is on the roofs of Motels, Hotels, Warehouses, Factories, Homes, etc. It can be done, if you take action now. It will not happen by Treaty, by passing some stupid law, or by selling Energy Credits like shares of stock.

If Al Gore isn't all that concerned with global warming I'm not going to worry much about it either. Obviously he doesn't think it a big enough deal to change his own lifestyle.
How can Al Gore be contacted or has he left Tennessee for some tropical island until winter is over?
