The King Across the Water

One more thought to add to the previous mix:

I have a lot of reservations about Al Gore. He has been on the right side of virtually every major policy issue of the past quarter-century, but his policy brilliance is matched only by his political incompetence. He is tone deaf, patronizing, and his political instincts are atrocious. He talks down to people and makes no attempts to hide his vast intelligence behind a facade of humility. I think that he is living his dream now, is aware of his political limitations, and does not want to risk going from punchline to hero to punchline again. So I do not think that he will run.

Nevertheless...

If you believe, like I do, that Al Gore rightfully won the 2000 election, that it was stolen from him by five shamefully partisan members of the Supreme Court, and that George W. Bush ascended to the presidency without popular legitimacy and commenced to rule through fear and war, then I think it is a moral obligation to support Gore if he decides he wishes to fight for Restoration.

That said, I've always been a bit taken by the Jacobites, so take all of that with a grain of salt.
