Al Gore just won the Nobel Peace prize for his work on global warming.

It is very evident that the Nobel Prize committee doesn't base its decision on facts. Al Gore himself admitted that he exaggerated facts to defend his case. Visceral's thread explains it.

Now that he is the big shot, will Al Gore run for president?

I agree Canto. I also think it is funny that this announcement came the day after the English judge ruled that his "Inconvenient Trust" movie had 9 significant errors. Now everyone is talking about how he may run for President [There is a funny picture on Mo Rocca's blog today about just this. Check it out: Al Gore's Baby Bump - News Bloggers]

Also, I was listening to the radio and the commentator was saying how Pres. Clinton must be fuming that his VP won the Nobel Prize and not him. What about all his work for the tsumani efforts, Hurricane Katrina victims, etc.? Oh well, I guess he will have to work a little harder and come up with his own inconvenient bore.
