Not a wonk. Not a thinker. A man who depends heavily on the kindness of strangers. Now, Al Gore is no Bill Clinton. But when are we all going to grow up and admit there is no such thing as a perfect president.
Every single candidate has a personal foible or two, or three.
Forget that Al Gore served his country in war. Forget that he has been a tireless champion of the environment. That he has been faithful to his wife and constituents. Big Al's major foible seems to be that he gets a bit excited and exaggerates. You can't exaggerate public policy.
