Interesting Facts about Al Gore
- While appearing as a guest on The Dennis Miller Show (1992), he was asked about having confessed to smoking marijuana. Miller followed the question up by asking, "So, who rolls a tighter joint, you or Tipper?" Gore chuckled and cleverly side-stepped, managing not to give a real answer. Tipper Gore, however, who was watching just out of camera range, was shocked and fumed, not at all pleased with the line of questioning.
- His roommates at Harvard were actor Tommy Lee Jones and Erich Segal.
- Born at 12:53pm-EST
- Graduated with honors from Harvard University, with a degree in government. [1969]
- Served in Vietnam for nearly five months as an army journalist.
- Worked as an investigative reporter at The Tennessean.
- Attended Vanderbilt University Divinity School and Vanderbilt Law School.
- Children: Karenna Gore (born August 6, 1973), Kristin Gore (born June 5, 1977), Sarah Gore (born January 7, 1979) and Albert Gore III (born October 19, 1982).
- His name anagrams into a one-word letter, i.e. a transposition. Re-arranging the letters in "Al Gore" yields either "galore" or "gaoler". Other names with this property include Tom Cruise ("costumier"), Condoleezza Rice (as Condi Rice: "coincider"), Congressmen Ed Royce ("decoyer") and Ed Pastor ("adopters", "pastored", "readopts"), and commentator Eleanor Clift ("reflectional").
- From an article by Mountain Democrat columnist David Jacobsen: "In a March 1999 interview with Wolf Blitzer, Gore said, "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet." Taken in context, the sentence, despite some initial ambiguity, means that as a congressman Gore promoted the system we enjoy today, not that he could patent the science, though that's how the quotation has been manipulated. Hence the disingenuous substitution of "inventing" for the actual language."
- Is fluent in Spanish.
- Scored 1350 on the SAT.
- Has two grandchildren by daughter Karenna Gore: grandson Wyatt born July 4, 1999 and granddaughter Anna born August 23, 2001.

- Wife, Tipper Gore, shares a birthday with his presidential running mate, former President Bill Clinton (August 19).
- Receiving The Webby Lifetime Achievement Award for taking the initiative to help create the Internet.
