Gore to endorse Obama

Post by Surlethe »

This showed up in my email inbox this afternoon. Apparently, it's live on television right now.
Dear xxxx,

A few hours from now I will step on stage in Detroit, Michigan to announce my support for Senator Barack Obama. From now through Election Day, I intend to do whatever I can to make sure he is elected President of the United States.

Over the next four years, we are going to face many difficult challenges -- including bringing our troops home from Iraq, fixing our economy, and solving the climate crisis. Barack Obama is clearly the candidate best able to solve these problems and bring change to America.

This moment and this election are too important to let pass without taking action.

[That's why I am asking you to join me in showing your support by making a contribution to this campaign today:

https://donate.barackobama.com/gore]

Over the past 18 months, Barack Obama has united a movement. He knows change does not come from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue or Capitol Hill. It begins when people stand up and take action.

With the help of millions of supporters like you, Barack Obama will bring the change we so desperately need in order to solve our country's most pressing problems.

[If you've already contributed to this campaign, I ask that you consider making another contribution right now. If you haven't, please take the next step and own a piece of this campaign today:

https://donate.barackobama.com/gore]

On the issues that matter most, Barack Obama is clearly the right choice to lead our nation.

We have a lot of work to do in the next few months to elect Barack Obama president, and it begins by making a contribution to this campaign today.

Thank you for joining me,

Al Gore

LIVE TONIGHT -- 8:30 p.m. EDT: Watch streaming video of Al Gore and Barack Obama at a rally in Detroit, Michigan:

A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

I'm watching this right now.

A singer just slaughtered the national anthem...

Hopefully this isn't indicative of the rest of the rally.

Shrieking about how racist, elitist, and designed to marginzalize Hillary it is. Also: Copy-paste insults of Gore from the GOP in 2000.

Does it really matter? Its not like he was going to endorse McCain. Also, does Hi44 have a forum or something? I'm not seeing any reaction to the endorsement on the mainpage.

Comments on the latest thread, near the bottom, in amongst the usual 'Black man gonna kill us all' stuff.
