al gore is human

The campaign to prove that we'd all be so much better off if the results of the 2000 election had gone another continues.

I'm not sure why we would expect Gore to be anything but human, but it was actually a little sad to watch this video of the former Vice President, shot by director Spike Jonze in the days before the 2000 election.

Remember that poll that said that there was a higher percentage of voters who wanted to have a beer with Bush than with Gore, an indicator of their voting preferences? Yeah, the appeal of the real.

I'd like to have a beer with Al Gore.

It's 13 minutes long, but take the time to watch it. It's the least we can do for the guy.

Thanks to Boing Boing for the heads up. (Thanks to Johnson City Forum for the handsome photo.)
