Al Gore is a good man. He is a decent, caring man. He listens to his heart and his head. He loves his family.

Eventually I foresee voting on the Internet, which will lead to much more direct democracy.

I led the fight for the Clinton health care plan in 1994. We failed. I learned from that experience. What I learned is you can't pass a complicated government-run plan.

I think when everything is finally considered, I'll have a lot of support -- strong support -- not only from labor unions but from working people.

I'm running for president because I've had enough of the oil barons, the status-quo apologists, the special-interest lobbyists running amok.

And the president should be doing more about education than saying, 'Lights, camera, action.'

In 1988, as an unknown candidate, totally unknown, I won Iowa, came in second in New Hampshire, won South Dakota. I was ahead in every Super Tuesday state the day after South Dakota. The only problem was I didn't have enough money. I had a million dollars left, and Al Gore had three and Michael Dukakis had three and it was lights out.
