Al Gore Recordings

Al Gore Recordings: The Complete Audio Archive

Longtime politician, businessman, and environmentalist, Al Gore served as Bill Clinton's Vice President and won the popular vote in the 2000 presidential election. This comprehensive audio collection spans over 125 hours and features 214 recordings that trace Gore's remarkable journey from the House of Representatives through his transformative post-Vice Presidency work. Beginning with his first speech before the C-SPAN cameras in 1979 and continuing through recent appearances, these recordings capture the evolution of a public servant whose mission to save the Earth from climate disaster has defined his career.

Collection Highlights

• Includes the complete 2000 presidential election saga: all three debates with George W. Bush, the Florida legal challenges, the Florida Supreme Court decision, and Gore's historic concession speech after 36 days of uncertainty
• Features Gore's landmark Nobel Peace Prize acceptance in 2007, along with his Oscar-winning documentary moment and his passionate climate change testimony before Congress
• Captures pivotal political moments: the 1992 NAFTA debate with Ross Perot, acceptance speeches at both the 1992 and 1996 Democratic National Conventions, and his 2000 convention speech where he made history by choosing Senator Joe Lieberman as his running mate
• Documents Gore's early environmental advocacy from the 1980s, his work reinventing government as Vice President, and his enduring climate crisis warnings through the 2020s, including appearances at COP27 and San Francisco Climate Week
