Revision as of 03:53, 3 January 2004 by AmericanCentury21 (talk | contribs) (Revert; again this article contain opinions "Highly unusal" and then the claim that political pressure was used is just untrue and unfair to say.)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Albert Arnold Gore III (born October 19 1982) is the son of former United States Vice President Al Gore and Tipper Gore and the grandson of former United States Senator from Tennesee Al Gore, Sr.. He is best-known for being mentioned in an emotional vice-presidential nomination acceptance speech by his father during the 1992 Democratic National Convention.
In April 1989 at age six, Albert Arnold Gore III was the victim of a near-fatal car accident while attending a baseball game in Baltimore, Maryland. Because of this and the resulting lengthy healing process, his father chose to stay near him during the recovery instead of laying the foundation for a presidential primary campaign against eventual Democrat party nominee, Bill Clinton.
He has had several run-ins with the law that, largely due to the fame of his father, garnered some brief media attention: in the summer of 2000, he was cited by the North Carolina Highway Patrol for driving 97mph in a 55mph zone, the charge was later dropped; in September 2002, he was ticketed but not taken into custody for driving under the influence (of alcohol or other drugs) by military police just outside Fort Myer in suburban Virginia; and in December 2003, he was charged with marijuana possesion in Maryland.
