Buchanan says Gore prepared for the job 11/02/00 TOM GORDON News staff writer Reform Party presidential candidate Patrick Buchanan says voters don't have much of a choice between Vice President Al Gore and Texas Gov. George W. Bush in Tuesday's presidential election, but Gore would bring more experience and know-how to the White House. "In my judgment, Mr. Bush has a very pleasant and attractive persona," the former conservative commentator and two time Republican presidential contender said during a campaign swing through Birmingham. "But no candidate has ever been nominated by a major party in the last 150 years that I have seen who ... would come to the presidency with less in the way of knowledge, experience, background and qualification to be president." As for Gore, Buchanan said, "There's no question, if you talk about background, experience, knowledge of the issues, there is no question he is fully qualified from that standpoint, and very qualified from that standpoint." Buchanan, however, thinks he's a better choice. He says he wants to protect U.S. jobs, dramatically revise the tax code and scale back U.S. international troop deployments and the nation's involvement in international organizations. He's on Tuesday's ballot in Alabama as an independent candidate. al.com
