I am dumb founded by the lack of critical thinking on this issue.

You shouldn't be. Lack of critical thinking is rampant these days; it compromises most issues. It also compromises the opposition to most issues.

saw Algore this weekend

I saw him being questioned about his political ambitions during the concert. Gore kept wiggling away from giving a direct answer - but my feeling is that he will never run. Why should he? He has it made. He is rich - he's a big GOOG shareholder as a result of being an "advisor"... he is loved by his following, he is a celebrity, a bestselling author, a man of "ideas". Why should he want to spend years being questioned, attacked, criticized - and eventually, more likely than not, walk away as a 2nd time loser? He wouldn't answer the questions about running for President - but, I think, he does it only in order to keep up the "mystery"... he doesn't seem to be willing to fight for power. If it would be "handed" to him somehow - being that he is such a deserving visionary guy - he'd probably take it. He may not be as silly as he sounds.
