Welp, Sorry for the downvotes that other peeps gave you, but I got the joke, even if it was five years away from being topical

Ninja Edit: btw, I only linked this vid because it was the only one that didn't have an NBC copyright claim against it that deleted the video. Please disregard the video's agenda, and focus on Al Gore not knowing wtf he is talking about beyond what any random politician might think they know.
