Al Gore says that "For the people, not the powerful" in 2000 was his campaign slogan & that he was criticized for leaning left. Says Democracy was hacked by big money before the Russian hacking & there is massive income & political inequality & the Democrats must go left to address it.
Gore says that Bernie Sanders' campaign was significant even beyond politics & ideology & he proved that even in 2017, you can run a winning & credible campaign without big money & contributions from Lobbyist, Pac, Special Interests, etc by inspiring ordinary people & through small $ from online contributions.
Gore talks about how his 1st ever bill in Congress in 1977 was about getting money out of politics &
that it is a pivotal issue today & possibly the most important (100% Federal funding for elections, something he says he ran on every campaign of his). Also says he has supposed Single Payer since 2002 even though he believed in a hybrid public-private system in the 90's, says Medicare-for-all is the solution !
