Madonna says she'd support Al Gore, if he would only run to be the next president of the United States. Just in case any of you are not aware of this, democratic candidate Al Gore 'lost' to George W Bush in the 2000 US election, but rumour has it he's considering re-running in the next presidential race. Since the 2000 election, of course, Gore has garnered worldwide attention for his Oscar win this year for climate change documentary 'An Inconvenient Truth' - and it seems that it's the stand on environmental issues that has impressed the queen of pop. The singer told Die Zeit she had "deep respect for [presidential candidate] Hillary Clinton as a woman," but said of Gore: "I would publicly support him if he joins the race".
Lot's of people would like Gore to run this year, actually - it's possibly because he always comes across as a reasonable, intelligent sort of a man - and according to reports, the former US vice-president hasn't ruled it out.
