Al Gore
from Now I've Heard Everything · host Bill Thompson
In the summer of 1992, then US senator Al Gore from Tennessee was thrust into a much more visible public role, when Bill Clinton selected him as his running mate on the Democratic ticket. That was also about the time Gore published his first book about the environment, a volume called Earth in the balance And that's how I met Al Gore, just a few weeks before he was nominated to be vice president. The day I interviewed him if he had any indication that he was about to be nominated to be on the Clinton ticket, he did a really good job of hiding it.
