Not to defend Al Gore because I really don't care for him much. But I remember way back in the 80's before he was running for office with Bill watching a TV broadcast of some speech in Tennesse he was giving. In that speech he mentioned the World Wide Web. He never said the word "internet". I remember thinking "What in the World is he talking about" and thinking that I would never see the day that it would happen. I think at the time I had a Commodor 64. Remember them? He for sure didn't invent the internet, but I just think he saw it coming and maybe supported the ones behind it.
