Al Gore

Al Gore was the Democrat presidential candidate for the 2000 US presidential election, and an early proponent of legislation that would aid the development of the Internet. He was cheated out of winning the election by the Supreme Court, which ruled against a recount of votes in Florida in spite of the fact that a recount was required by Florida Law and upheld by the Florida State Supreme Court. This is both an example of conservative deceit and of rampant conservative judicial activism.

After the election Gore developed a slide show to increase awareness about global warming, an issue he had long tried to persuade the government to act on. He traveled around the United States educating audiences about global warming. His slide show was later made into a movie, An Inconvenient Truth, which won an Oscar. Conservative politicians, in the pockets of the energy and automobile companies that faced lower profits if the United States acted to reduce the threat of global warming, have blocked all efforts to deal with the issue, another example of conservative deceit.

In 2007 he won the Nobel Peace prize for his work on raising public awareness of the threat of global warming.
