Al Gore: The Right Place at the Right Time
[ send me this paper ]
This 20 page paper explores Al Gore, Jr. and his political life. When Gore was nominated for the vice presidency in 1992, his father unabashedly told The New York Times that "we raised him for it." If this were not an election year, and we were to look at the life of Al Gore, Jr. We would say that his is truly an American success story. For the American body politic, he has been at the right place, at the right time. Gore has had a political lifetime "making it happen." Bibliography lists 13sources.

Al Gore’s "Earth in the Balance"
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page paper reviewing this work by former US vice president Gore. Gore’s publisher places on the book jacket glowing terms such as “intellectual brilliance” and “impeccable scholarship” to describe the contents of Gore’s 1992 work. The positions and sentiments that Gore presents in the work are admirable and do indeed deserve greater attention before the world of the future transforms itself into the present. Gore’s suggestions are so unworkable, however, that even Gore himself abandoned all but the rhetoric throughout his eight years as Vice President, during which time he had immense opportunity to, in essence, “put his money where his mouth is.” As has been the case with so many other self-styled “environmentalists,” Gore has demonstrated that there is little semblance between what he writes in the pages of “Earth in the Balance” and what he, as politician, businessman and individual, chooses to practice. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
