Why This Conservative Wants To Be Like Al Gore

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I have to admit it. I am jealous of former Vice President Al Gore. I want what he’s got, at least in a generalized way. It isn’t that I envy him for having been vice president. The number two spot has traditionally been one not well regarded and only a few VPs have made the […]
