Al Gore Doesn’t Say I Told You So

"…We don't have time to wallow in despair. We've got work to do, and the stakes have never been higher. It's hard to find words adequate to this challenge. I wish, so deeply, that I could find the words to inspire in others the burning passion for saving our country and making it, in Lincoln's phrase, "the last best hope"; and revivifying the promise that America has always held for the world, with all of our contradictions and weaknesses and failures. But it relies upon the willingness of the American people to wake up, and fight to save our democracy, and to save the future of humanity. This all sounds so dire—but it is."
