The rationale seems to be that dealing with global warming sanely - which isn't going to happen, but it's a nice idea - would prevent an almost endless round of resource and survival wars in the rest of the century.

And it's the panel's way of saying 'Hey - actually an issue. Can we start dealing with this please?'

Gore may well look like Clinton in drag, but I think if he were genuinely another lap dog or political narcissist he would have been out of the gate far earlier.

But in fact there's no reason to believe that he's anything other than completely committed and passionate on this one issue.

Since he's unlikely to be worse on worker rights than any of the others (except - possibly - Edwards)  it makes sense to support to him.

If he runs. And personally, I think he probably won't.

It's difficult to imagine a better way for him to affect the way we respond to climate change than by his being president of the US. They should take away his nobel if he doesn't run. ;)
