My Take

What I admire most about Al Gore is not the offices he held but what he did after the one he lost. The 45th vice president under Clinton came agonizingly close to the presidency, then refused to fade, channeling his energy into climate advocacy that earned him the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize and even an Emmy through An Inconvenient Truth. Born in 1948 in Washington, D.C., he turned a crushing political defeat into a global second act on his own terms. I find that reinvention genuinely moving; the capacity to convert a loss into a larger mission is rarer and more impressive than any electoral victory.
