Hillary Clinton's plan to use Al Gore to win over young voters doesn't really make sense
Younger voters need someone they can relate to (they "dig the rap") and identify with, as most have the attention span of goldfish, and were educated in public schools. Someone of their generation who looks and thinks like they do would be ideal.Hillary (aged 68) has capitalized on her rousing success of enlisting the help of the ever-youthful Bernie Sanders, and has pulled Al Gore (last recorded age =68) from cryo-stasis in order to influence young environmentally-minded voters.
"...the “young millennials,” those ages 18 to 25, who are turning away from the Democratic Party's nominee. This second group likely doesn't have much of a grasp of Gore's story — after all, most of them were toddlers when the Bill Clinton–Al Gore ticket first ran, in elementary school during the 2000 recount, and in middle school for the 2006 release of An Inconvenient Truth."
Our beloved party™ of youth and diversity continues to taunt the Rethugglikkans for being the party of "old white men" who have done nothing but start businesses, refine fossil fuels, and dodge their fair share of tax burden, as at least Bernie was a Socialist and Al tells stories about polar bears and invented the Interwebs, making him the Grandfather of Facebook and Tumblr.
