'''Albert Arnold "Al" Gore, Jr.''' (born March 31, 1948) was is the unqualified but leading cheerleader for the "[[global warming]]" hoax and its [[Leftist]] agenda of increasing government regulation over energy production and use. He was given the Nobel prize for his [[Chicken Little]]-like claims about a "global warming" crisis that subsequently did not occur.
Gore has spread [[alarmist]] [[propaganda]], proclaiming the end of the world. Gore likes to say that "The Earth has a fever" <ref>https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/GlobalWarming/story?id=2110628&page=1</ref> and is making millions of dollars through his hucksterism.<ref>http://newsbusters.org/node/11149</ref> He has no degree in atmospheric sciences, meteorology, physics, chemistry, biology, or climatology. Gore took two science classes as an undergraduate, scoring a "C+" in one and a "D" in the other.<ref>http://www.larryelder.com/Gore/goredubiousrecord.htm</ref><ref>https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/2000/03/19/gores-grades-belie-image-of-studiousness/5da4b9e3-a017-4dd5-9bb5-bfc68f0b4eb5/?utm_term=.2d304ead172d</ref> Charlie Munger mentioned that Gore is "an idiot" but became wealthy through a simple investment formula.<ref>https://www.cnbc.com/2017/06/23/buffett-partner-munger-says-al-gore-is-an-idiot-but-became-rich.html</ref>

==Political career==
===Vice President===
In the [[United States presidential election, 1992|1992 Presidential Election]], Democrat nominee [[Bill Clinton]] selected Gore as his running mate. They won the election, and Gore was sworn in as Vice President vice president on January 20, 1993. Clinton and Gore were elected to a second term in [[United States presidential election, 1996|1996]]. Gore had little influence in the [[Clinton Administration]], and almost nothing of significance is attributed to him. Although the only vice-president to be born in Washington, D.C., he went on an inauguration tour of the Jefferson Monticello, he pointed to four busts of George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and Marquis de Lafayette asking the curator who are these guys.<ref>https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4482741/clinton-gore-monticello</ref>
===Taxed Social Security===
===2000 Presidential nominee===
Gore famously used inflammatory and [[violent]] rhetoric throughout his campaign.<ref>https://www.baltimoresun.com/news/bs-xpm-2000-08-18-0008180205-story.html</ref>
As is often the case for incumbent Vice Presidents, Gore was nominated as his party's candidate in the [[United States presidential election, 2000|2000 Presidential Election]]. He lost to [[George W. Bush]] in the [[Electoral College]] after a close vote, in which Gore garnered more popular votes than Bush, but fewer electoral votes.
Gore challenged the election results and pursued a recount based on his far-fetched claim of violation of the [[Equal Protection Clause]], which the [[U.S. Supreme Court]] rejected by a 7-2 7–2 vote, in ''[[Bush v. Gore]]''.
On December 13, 2000, after an extensive court battle ([[Bush v. Gore]]), Gore accepted Bush's election to the presidency.<ref>Leip, David. "2000 Presidential General Election Results."
