At the rally in Detroit's Joe Louis Arena, Gore called Obama "the next President of the United States of America" and said he could lead the nation past "eight years in which our Constitution has been dishonored and disrespected". He addressed the issue of climate change, which he said many Republicans , with the notable exception of Senator John McCain, had "refused to discuss at all". "The outcome of this election will affect the future of our entire planet," Gore said, adding that "the future is ours, not to predict, but to create." He positively compared the criticisms directed at Obama's young age and "lack" of foreign policy experience to those faced by John F. Kennedy in the 1960 Presidential election. Al Gore served as Vice-President under President Bill Clinton in the '90s, and after losing the 2000 Presidential election to George W. Bush, he focused his efforts on environmental activism. He has won an Academy Award for his documentary An Inconvenient Truth, as well as a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in educating the public about climate change.
