There is absolutely no doubt that the next US government will be formed by the Democrats. Its also in this party that competition is vicious between two candidates in a very historical way. Apart from the fact that Democrats will give Americans either the first BlackPresident in history,they may also shape history if they vote in the First Woman President! So by all means, its an epic and historical election!
But some Democrats feel that Obama and Hillary are not the best candidates hence the need to have another candidate and this is where Al Gore comes in. He seems to be the best bet with Obama's traits and Hillary's experience. Whether Gore will go for it or not is yet to be seen in any case,he was denied victory at the last minute by the courts and that left him a badly bruised man. Once beaten very many times shy!
