19. True, but the article has 2 sentences that completely condradict each other
One saying that Obama is looking to give him a "slot" in the administration, the other saying that "Democrats say he isn't".

Here is a NYT op-ed from Gore written since the election - http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/09/opinion/09gore.html?_r=1&pagewanted=2 Obama has not said anything detailed enough to make it easy to see if they are on the same page. If they are not on the same page, the question is whether Gore could influence the overall result more in the administration or as an independent voice.

His input was sought by Senator Kerry, who spoke of having spoken to Gore as part of preparing for the Poland talks that he will attend tommorow and his plans for SFRC hearings on global warming. This could mean that he knows Gore will lead on this or simply reflect Kerry's long term respect for Gore on global warming.
