Al Gore Backs Obama For President

Former Vice President Al Gore endorsed Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama on Monday, urging Americans to reject what he called the Bush administration's legacy of "incompetence, negligence and failure."

"Americans simply cannot afford to continue the policies of the last eight years for another four," Gore, the party's 2000 presidential nominee, told Obama supporters at a rally in Detroit, Michigan.

Perceived as a senior statesman in the Democratic party, Gore brings a certain force to Obama's campaign, political analysts have said.

Monday marked Gore's debut in the 2008 election; he had not weighed in while Obama was still battling Sen. Hillary Clinton.

Wow, thanks for making a stand when a tough decision was being thrust upon you.  You didn't want to make a choice when it was Hillary Vs. Obama because you're a coward, and now that Obama's got it wrapped up, you've made the "safe" decision and "decided" to back Obama.  I'm REALLY glad you didn't get to be President in 2000.  You would have cowered in fear of making the wrong decision when the responsibility for those decision rests solely on your shoulders if you HAD been President.

Remember "The buck stops here"?  Obviously you don't.
