Al Gore's beautiful 2000 concession speech is worth rereading to clear our palate from the bitter taste of Trump's tawdriness on Jan. 6
Thanks for posting this. Ever since January 6, I had a vague memory of Gore’s speech in mind. But I never bothered to look it up. It is a wonderful reminder of what democracy is - and a very striking contrast with the fake tough-guy.
An excellent speech, and one that is definitely worth remembering regardless of the level of politics we work in.
Make Democracy Better Again :)
One thing I am not comfortable with is "God Bless America", how is that compatible with secularism and rationality?
