Hands of Friendship

In the News: In a dramatic and completely unprecidented turn of events, presidential hopeful Barack Obama offered the former Vice President and current global-warming hero Al Gore a spot on the Obama cabinet. Seemingly moments later, presidential hopeful Hilary Clinton seconded this promise of an open-armed reception of the ex-VP, a move that brought tears to the eyes of many Americans. "They both call. And I appreciate that fact," a humbled Gore said during his interview on 60 Minutes; imagine, people in the spotlight as much as Obama and Clinton reaching out a hand of friendship like that to a man like Al Gore. Isn't that what makes America great?
