I've seen his name mentioned a couple of times for 2020 I also saw some rumors about him leading up to 2016. He would have instant 100% name recognition and be a fundraising juggernaut but he will be 72 and will not have been on a ballot in 20 years

Al Gore is finished with political office. He should have ran again in 2004 or in 2016 when Hillary Clinton was faltering due to the email issues in summer 2015.

If it has been so long since you've held office that there are people old enough to vote who have no recollection of you holding office, you don't have 100% instant name recognition.

There will be voters in 2020 who were not alive when Al Gore was vice president or ran for president.

It would be like if Walter Mondale ran for president in 2000.

if he wanted it he would have ran in 2004, or 2008; or pushed heavily to be Obama's VP in 2008. Heck Obama would have dropped out in 08 if Gore ran.

Tl;DR: No

No. He already said he wants to get out of the political world.

He is not coming back but he is very strong on Climate Change so that will appeal to many progressives!
