Cultural Ramifications of Gore Being Elected?

I've often seen threads discussing how a theoretical at-least-one-term-Gore-Presidency would have gone and most of the discussion is understandably how Gore would have handled the challenges of terrorism during his administration. My question to the people on this board is how you feel culture would be affected with Gore in office, assuming the events ITL are relatively the same as the ones in the OTL.

That is true, but consider Gore's different personality and political views. Do you feel that would have any barring on pop culture?
Would boring, awkward nerds become more prominent in this TL? Indeed, are we going to see various fictional characters modeled on President Gore?

I'm not really sure if this counts for this, but I doubt that popular trends on things such as same-sex marriage and marijuana legalization would be affected by this; after all, these trends appear to be widespread in the developed world and not merely limited to the U.S. and thus a different U.S. President probably wouldn't affect these trends very much, if at all.

Well allegedly, the character of Michael Scott on the American version of The Office was based off of President Bush, so maybe a character in his place based off of Gore surfaces instead.

The reason why I asked how culture could be affected is because after 9/11, Bush emphasized a "rally around the flag" style of patriotism, which caused outsiders to be heavily shunned. Do you see Gore engaging in as much blatant patriotism?
To some extent, but not as blatantly.
