Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore speaks during an interview at the annual Milken…
Soon after BuzzFeed’s report, Politico talked to Gore’s spokesperson and his former Chief of Staff, both of whom told the outlet Gore isn’t considering a run.
And if Gore won the nomination, he could be on the ballot with another Bush: Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, the brother of George W., who’s running for the Republican nomination against Donald Trump, Ben Carson, Scott Walker and a bevy of other candidates.
Despite speculation, a spokeswoman for Al Gore has said the former vice president will not be entering the 2016 presidential election.
Vice President Joe Biden is exploring the possibility to run for the White House, especially with Democratic front runner Hillary Clinton dealing with controversy involving her private e-mails during her time as Secretary of State. The consideration comes as the campaign of Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton, the wife of President Bill Clinton who tapped Gore for the VP spot in 1992, is seemingly faltering. Now, Gore, who has been absent from the public eye, is reportedly taking it into consideration.
And an associate of Gore told CNN the speculation was “groundless” and a “top source within the democratic party” told NBC “there was nothing substantive happening in the Gore camp”.
“They’re determining if there is a path financially and politically”, an unnamed Democrat informed BuzzFeed about the insiders.
