Who cares? Too many Americans take that “image” stuff too seriously. Al Gore generally did the right thing throughout his political career. Your claim that he was an annoying, robotic snob is just how he came across to you. It’s your own perception. It doesn’t correspond to the nature of who he really was (or is) as a person. It’s just an aspect of the “image” he had back then. And that “image” stuff is always so stupid.
@@matthewgliatto7339 no, image is important. Reputation matters. If people dont like what they see, theyre not going to bother with you. Thats why he lost so many states that Bill Clinton won. Thats why the 2000 election motto was "who would you rather have a beer with", and the people chose Bush. Its not me, its most people. You just choose not to see it. This is coming from someone who wishes he won.
It’s like how Trump claims to be the rightful winner in the 2020 election, Democrats are just massive hypocrites about this sort of thing. They openly claim that the 2000 election was stolen while calling anyone who says the same about 2020 an insurrectionist.

Yea your right. But Ill tell you this Bill Clinton balanced the budget and paid down some of the debt. Al gore would have continued the work paid down the rest of the debt within 8 years. And our federal social services programs would be stronger. 9/11 likely never would have happened. And the prosperity would have continued. This was the beginning of great debt in the year 2000 after we elected george w bush.

oh, definitely! I think he would work really well in the Cabinet, if offered a position. He knows how to navigate through government but he also has, like, 30 years of experience working to help our environment.
Depends if Gore would've invaded Iraq or not...if he didn't invade and Blair followed suit, Blair probably would've gone down as one of Britain's greatest PMs of all time as his legacy wouldn't have been overshadowed by Iraq so ppl would *actually* remember the great things he did like reducing child poverty, peace in N. Ireland, 900,000 pensioners out of poverty...etc etc
Gore is not perfect not by a long shot but he had one advantage over Bush. He had spent 8 years in DC politics. Bush junior was a novice and it really showed how much when 9/11 hit.
Exactly. Also, Gore had eight years experience immediately prior to becoming VP, as a Senator from Tennessee (who also ran for President in 1988 but dropped out in the primaries that year). So he knew had the White House worked inside and out for 16 years straight. Bush knew how the State of Texas operated as Governor thereof for six years, and nothing more/nowhere else governmentally.
@@afranks8566Bush is actually not dumb. He's clumsy, and he's really, REALLY awkward during speeches and press conferences, and he certainly was ill-prepared for the job, but when you hear him speaking in a more informal setting you quickly realize he's certainly not dumb. Not saying he's a Nixon-level intellect, but he's far from the low-IQ hillbilly he's been portrayed as. And it's not like a Nixon-level intellect necessarily equals a good president either.
He's just doing sooo much to 'save' this planet. Flying his private jets everywhere he goes and cashing in on all the conferences he goes to. Net worth of $300 million! What a guy! Totally should be president.
His 8 years in the White House really changed him. He used to be a conservative. His own home state rejected him because he became a liberal and that’s why he lost.
But your founding fathers thought it wise to allow each state its own mechanism to provide electors to the national Electoral College. They deliberately rejected direct democracy for the office of President. Were they wrong? If so, why? If not, what's changed?
Ik this is falling on deaf ears, but the reason for thats is because politicians would never campaign anywhere in the middle of the country so big cities will decide every election. The electoral college votes out of every state based on who the people of that state voted for.
@@josejh-eb8st Big cities would decide every election because that's there most of the people are; that's how a majority works. Ironically, the Electoral College makes it so that swing states decide every election.
God no. He ran a pitiful campaign and wound up losing an election that heavily favored him. And he still whines about it like a baby to this day. He would’ve been an awful president, even worse then Bush. Which is already a really low bar.
Gore could have just been an average president and America would still have been far better off today than what it endured with Bush who is undoubtedly one of the worst presidents in American history. That's how bad Bush was.
I really hate these clickbait titles. Gore barely talked about the 2000 election except for one offhand comment about Jeb Bush being governor at the time. The rest of the video was about Trumps 2016 victory.
After what we seen nationally and here in Pa., I think Mr. Gore should have asked for a recount, I wonder if we may not have had the weapons of mass destruction war.
Look people, he didn't "lose". He lost, no matter the popular vote margin. In the US, we don't elect a president by the popular vote. For centuries, we have had the electoral college. Every candidate for president knows they have to win the electoral college, and they fine tune their campaign thinking about winning on the individal state level, state by state to garner the required number of electoral votes. The democrats hate it because they can't just run up millions of votes in California, Illinois, and New York and win every single election. The framers did this to prevent centralized tyranny, and this has made the US the most stable government anywhere in the world.
Because if you look at the situation that happened in Florida, specifically with this one county leaning left, and how the ballot was badly designed, you'd also not be very confident that he really lost that election.
@@SomeOneFromOFS The official vote count gave him more. And, ballots were getting counted weeks after the fact. It's called election day, not election month.
Very different and much better man from 2000 and much more respected than he was then when he was deemed stiff, reticent, aggressive, and patronizing during his debates most notably when he invaded Bush’s personal space and to reflect on the controversial election that was to take place a year before 9/11 when all eyes suddenly changed.
Unknowable. Florida 2000 was a clusterfuck of such epic proportions that no one knows for sure who actually won Florida. Even if a state wide recount had taken place, the uncertainty over the hanging chads and butterflies fucked it up so completely that it would have been totally impossible to know.
They stopped counting the votes in Florida so we don't truly know if Gore actually lost. The Supreme Court screwed the entire country of a fair election.
@@ciaranoconnell4783 the winner take all rules is the real problem preventing a true democracy in America. If electoral votes were awarded porportionally Gore would have been president
I guess he was more focused on policies than building up his ego by presenting a nice likeable image of himself. And he would have won the electoral college if they had counted all the votes in Florida, including of african americans. Like in an actual democracy

Funny enough, I would be arrogant too if I were Al Gore after how George Bush was one of the very worst presidents in American history. To be able to walk around with the knowledge that you would have made your country far better than what actually happened must be quite the ego booster. Gore could have sat in the White House doing literally nothing for 8 years but twiddling his thumbs and he wouldn't have caused 1/100th of the damage Bush did.
@@ThatOneGuy7999 the popular vote is insignificant, Gore had his recounts into December. It might have not been fair but hey Jeb was governor there and helped his brother, are you really angry about it 20 years later? Also please no profanity
