1. The Real Al Or A Recording...

I get recordings from Bill and HRC prior to elections...

[mike_c]

2. huh? Al calls two or three times a day, just to say hi....

He doesn't call you?

[Rose Siding]

6. Why would he call? He's right here!

:P

[TahitiNut]

7. Naw. I get my calls from Bill Clinton. He called again yesterday ...

... as a matter of fact. :shrug:

[drm604]

8. I know. It actually gets kind of annoying after a while.

Why does he want my advice? :shrug:

[populistdriven]

28. I have a cutout of Al at our dinner table

He has great table manners!

:party:

[drm604]

3. I'm meeting him tomorrow afternoon.

:) :bounce:

[Rose Siding]

9. You lucky dog! Where?

:bounce:

[drm604]

10. At a Lois Murphy fundraiser

in the Philly suburbs. What's neat is that I'm not just going to see him speak to a crowd. This is a small get together at a private home.

[Rose Siding]

11. I hope you'll dish, after

Have a great time.

[drm604]

12. Maybe I'll have pictures. n/t

[ms liberty]

25. Tell him about us. Tell him ...

we would work 24/7 to put him in the WH in 08. Tell him we're sorry we weren't there for him in '00. Tell him his nation needs him - not just anyone will do to save America and to fix the mess we're in. It has to be someone with the vision, the drive, the intelligence, and the experience. It needs to be him. His country needs him. We need him.

Can you tell I feel really strongly about this?

I envy you so much - I'd probably be completely tongue-tied!

[lildreamer316]

29. Strongly seconded.

I am SO ready to go with his run. Chafing at the bit.
Guess us NCers had better plan to get together if/when he announces, eh?

[ms liberty]

32. Yes! n/t

[drm604]

31. That's my fear.

That I'll be completely tongue-tied, shake his hand, maybe get a picture, and that's all. To be honest, that may be all I'll have the chance to do. For all I know, he may have some kind of planned talk or presentation that will take up most of the time. I've never been to one of these things before so I don't know. The event lasts 1 1/2 hours but for all I know, he'll show up for 5 minutes to shake hands.
I may stop at a bookstore to see if I can buy one of his books to get signed.

[ms liberty]

33. Deep breaths and visualize success! You'll be fine... n/t

[Jamastiene]

20. Lucky dog. I'm jealous. n/t

[drm604]

34. Here are some pictures.

[sqarebis]

4. That would be sooo cool

Al's my buddy :D

[ThomCat]

5. If Al called he in person

I'd find a way to commit a substantial amount of money (by my standards) to whatever cause he recommended.

If it's a recording I hang up. I don't listen to recordings.

[knitter4democracy]

13. I'd start hyperventillating.

Seriously--I'd totally freak out. Wow. It's really cool thinking he's doing real phone calls.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

14. Of course I would be tongue tied, or I'd say the wrong thing,

then I'd be embarrassed, then I'd kick myself for days for acting so stupid and play over and over in mind what I should have said.
It would definitely bring out the Charlie Brown in me.

[Rose Siding]

15. Oh, my

Now we can plan what to say if he calls. lol

I'd have to make a quick case for his 08 candidacy -just begging, I guess. The upside for him is light.

[lildreamer316]

30. I'd just keep calling him "Mr. President".

I think he'd get the idea........

[neebob]

16. I only got an email

I feel slighted now.

[Richard Steele]

17. No doubt, I'd be like "Yeah, right!" and hang up on him!

"Hey, sweetie: some goober just called pretending to be Al Gore!
Can you believe that?""

[Wednesdays]

27. He's probably already anticipated that sort of reaction, so

he'd probably just say, "Hi, I'm Al from the moveon.org headquarters," and then settle into a pleasant chat--the recipient never being the wiser who the caller really was.

I don't see him as being so lofty as to make such a scenario impossible.

[vixengrl]

18. Er...um--I'd probably lose it and actually want to talk.

Poor man would have one chatty, starstruck Vixen to deal with,

[Warren DeMontague]

19. He must get tired of what almost everyone says:

"PLEASE RUN!"

[LSK]

21. K&R - how does this only have 4 votes?

[Raster]

22. TEN!

Thank you Citizen Gore.
:kick:

[Canuckistanian]

23. Hello?... Al Gore? (snicker)...Sure, I'll vote, "Al Gore.."

Is this really Gord, from work?.... (wait a minute, this voice sounds familiar... and he sounds sincere and honest)

Uhhhh...... (last word of any coherence from me....)

[bunkerbuster1]

24. I'd probably not snicker--I'd say "hey, nice work!"

"You do stand up, yes?"

And then I'd probably start backpedaling. But in a respectful way, I'd hope.

[Canuckistanian]

26. I'm always respectful

Just a little too cynical, I guess.
