of a paper gold piece since under the top paper gold piece are eleven
more gold paper sheets with a sheet of carbon paper between each.

The radical Al Gore
A look at the vice president's
extremist environmental agenda

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Editor's note: The following analysis of Vice President Al Gore's little-known beliefs and public policy positions, profoundly influenced by his total embrace of radical environmentalism, is excerpted from a more in-depth article in the April edition of WorldNet magazine.

Vice President Albert Gore portrays himself as a moderate Democrat who is concerned about global warming and "sustainable development." In public, he talks about spending time with his family and balancing his priorities. Many voters believe his heart is in the right place. Now that Gore is running for president, many Americans are seeking to take a closer look at what he really stands for.

During the 1992 presidential campaign, when Gore was Clinton's running mate against George Bush, Gore's vulnerability to a wide number of charges was pointed out by a Democratic National Committee staffer. According to The Wall Street Journal of August 13, 1992, DNC staffer Jonathan Sallet carefully went through Al Gore's book, "Earth in the Balance." Sallet noted passages in which the book was open to attack. Republicans might use these passages, for example, to charge that it was written by an unprincipled Washington insider whose opinions were anti-American.

In keeping with his concern, Sallet wrote a memo to warn Clinton's campaign that Gore's book could be a dangerous liability. While Sallet's memo noted a number of ways to spin Gore's book and avoid criticism, he stated that Gore might be charged with having "no principles" because he did not practice what he preached (e.g., riding around in an air conditioned car on the way to speak against CFCs). The number of inconsistencies in Gore's behavior and his environmentalist rhetoric was disturbing.

"He is a hypocrite who urges [restricting] population growth while revering his own large family," noted Sallet.

Coming from an operative of the Democratic Party, Sallet's memo cannot be brushed aside as a partisan attack. Although Gore's communications director, Maria Romash, reacted to Sallet's memo by saying it was an effort to anticipate "stupid" Republican criticisms, Sallet cited passages which show Gore up as "a weak figure" caught in "the throes of a mid-life crisis. ..." The memo noted that Gore is "a classic Washington insider, who has been trained ... to tailor his views to what he thinks the voters want to hear. ..."

According to Sallet's analysis, Gore is "guilt-ridden about the role of men in society" and believes that "America as a whole is psychologically dysfunctional."
