Talk:Al Gore/Archive 3

message: I just got an email from arhcive.com which now houses the Al Gore campaign site of 2000 about use of it's content and here is what she says:
Hello,
Copyrights are a very tricky area of the law, and I am not a lawyer.  Therefore I cannot answer you with a definite yes or no answer to 
your question.  The general terms of use for the site state that the
items on the site can be used for non-commercial use. However you are still 
dealing with potentially copyrighted information.  It might be wise
to try to get in contact with the people that used to run the site.  They
might still have an email address still working from the old site.  Since
it is for Gore, there is probably still some staffers or volunteers still
working for him that were involved with the site.
Hope this helps,
Astrid Bragg
Office Manager

Really, I don't think any of the Gore people would care and as the lady said, as most campaign sites are, you can use it non commmercially.

replies: text: Chris, the content you submit must be written by you.  If it's not written by you, then you should identify your source both in your submit comments as well as within the text as a reference.  And then you can only submit works which are either explicitly released into the public domain, or explicitly released under the GFDL.  Alternatively, you can sometimes submit content which was created before 1923, but that gets tricky. Anthony DiPierro 13:43, 13 Mar 2004 (UTC)
replies: text:  Also, a non-commercial license is not appropriate for Wikipedia, because the GFDL does not allow for restrictions on commercial use. Agains, all part of the burden of being a free-as-in-speech encyclopedia. Martin 02:05, 17 Mar 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Gore 2000 Website Issues

message: Perhaps we could open this entry briefly to correct a clerical error?  Al Gore was not the grandson of Senator Thomas Gore; his grandparents were Allen Gore and Margie Denny.  Allen Gore was a farmer in Tennessee, and, as far as can be told, had no relation to the Senator from Oklahoma.  TMiscia March 25, 2004
I've made this fix on the temporary page. Perhaps Gore was confused with Gore Vidal. -24.13.224.74 23:27, 28 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Gore has mostly been a behind-the-scenes player. Early in Clinton's first term, the president enlisted Gore to study the entire federal government to pinpoint wasteful areas. Gore's National Performance Review guided Clinton when he downsized the government. The vice president was also instrumental in the passage of 1993's North American Free Trade Agreement.
During his time as Vice President, Al Gore was mostly a behind the scenes player. However, he is widely considered to be the most active and best Vice President in modern US history. On the request of President Clinton, Gore wrote National Performance Review, which pointed out bad areas of the federal government and later helped guide President Clinton when he down sized the government. Gore was also very instrumental in the passing of 1993's North American Free Trade Agreement.
Just the first one I happened to look at. Anthony DiPierro 02:33, 18 Mar 2004 (UTC)
