Gore's Role in an Obama Administration?

Some people have suggested that Al Gore would be a good choice for Barack Obama's running-mate. Personally I have not heard a good argument in favor of Al Gore as Obama's VP. I honestly don't think it will help the ticket. Some voters are put off by Gore. I don't think it would even help to win over HRC supporters, most of whom will come around in due time anyway.

I think it would help Obama more to hint that he's going to give Gore a large role other than VP, without getting specific, if possible.

I would like to see Al Gore in one of these roles:
- Secretary of the Interior
- Head of the EPA
- Secretary of Energy
- some new post specifically concerned with the Climate Crisis

However I really think Gore's strengths go way beyond the global warming issue and he may be even more valuable as:
- Secretary of State
- Ambassador to the UN

What role do you think Al Gore should have in the Obama administration, and why?


Gore will have a role in the Obama administration

Barack Obama will surround himself in his administration with America's finest. Al Gore will be part of that administration in one capacity or another.
