Nor did Gore take a soft view of Iraq. From his
official platform:
In Iraq, we are committed to working with our international partners to keep Saddam Hussein boxed in, and we will work to see him out of power. Bill Clinton and Al Gore have stood up to Saddam Hussein time and time again. As President, Al Gore will not hesitate to use America's military might against Iraq when and where it is necessary.
i recall a clip from a debate or interview in 2000 where Gore accused W of being soft on Iraq just like his father. I wish i could find it.
