Announcing ForGore.com - You Have the Power!

I know alot of us DFAers <3 Al Gore. I'm happy to announce the launch of a new Draft Gore effort (think of it as a people-powered YouTube petition):

http://www.forgore.com

The idea is simple: ForGore.com is a video blog featuring Americans like you who want to see Al Gore jump into this race. Most importantly, ForGore.com needs you (yes, you!) to make your own video right now and submit it to the site.

We've signed petitions, we've gone to meetups, and we've talked to all our friends and neighbors. But despite our best efforts, Gore still hasn't jumped into the race. While he has yet to make the "Shermanesque" statement that he's not running, the fact of the matter is that Al Gore only has a few weeks left to launch his campaign.

So now it's your chance to turn up the heat. The idea is simple: record a video explaining why you are for Gore. Speak directly to him, or speak to all of us. Be creative and entertaining. Write a song, or make a (very) short film. Make sure your enthusiasm shows through. The power of our collective voices and smiling faces will be too strong for Al Gore to ignore.

After recording your video, upload it to YouTube (tag it with 'forgore'), and use this form to tell ForGore.com about it. Who knows, in a few days, Al Gore himself may see your video.

There's already a terrific Draft Al Gore movement out there, and America For Gore is the acting coalition for the movement. You should also check out DraftGore.com and AlGore.org to get more involved.

As a certain people-powered Presidential candidate once said, you have the power. Today, you have the power to get Al Gore into this race. But time is of the essence, so let's get started!
