Vanderbilt and journalism
Gore was "dispirited" after his return from Vietnam. The Nashville Post noted that, "his father's defeat made service in a conflict he deeply opposed even more abhorrent to Gore. His experiences in the war zone don't seem to have been deeply traumatic in themselves; although the engineers were sometimes fired upon, Gore has said he didn't see full-scale combat. Still, he felt that his participation in the war was wrong."
Although his parents wanted him to go to law school, Gore first attended Vanderbilt University Divinity School from 1971 to 1972 on Rockefeller Foundation scholarship for people planning secular careers. He later said he went there in order to explore "spiritual issues", and that "he had hoped to make sense of the social injustices that seemed to challenge his religious beliefs."
Gore also began to work the night shift for The Tennessean as an investigative reporter in 1971. His investigations of corruption among members of Nashville's Metro Council resulted in the arrest and prosecution of two councilmen for separate offenses.
He took a leave of absence from The Tennessean to attend Vanderbilt University Law School in 1974. His decision to become an attorney was a partial result of his time as a journalist, as he realized that while he could expose corruption, he could not change it. Gore did not complete law school, deciding abruptly in 1976 to run for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives when he found out that his father's former seat in the House was about to be vacated.

In essence, Al Gore is a real loser because he was a politician that didn't like losing, didn't finish law school, was ALSO a journalist, and found his real fortune in advancing a hoax known as "Global Warming." I'd venture that he makes more money off of his hoax than he would have as a lawyer.
Really? 202 plus 233 equals 435. According to your numbers, the Democrats should be in charge of the House instead of the Republicans. Also, are you seriously claiming that EVERY ONE of the members of the House of Representatives are lawyers. I think that would be news to a few of them. (See below.)
But, according your first claim, ALL of the members of the House of Representatives are lawyers. Isn't Pelosi one of those Representatives?
Who compiled your list?
Forum bs.
Is justice a virtue or a business? Are the law and justice synonymous? Is the level of justice in America commensurate to the large numbers of laws and lawyers?
Given the issues today should the legal industry be judged on it's own merits, as it's own side opposed to which ever political party they might align with?

I'd believe it if someone told me she never graduated kindergarden.
Just as I'd prefer the guy in charge of the military to have military experience and know what it's like, I'd prefer my chief law enforcement officer to have law experience and know what it's like. These just happen to be the same office.
These types of threads crack me up.
Well, the current occupant (think "Resident Obama) was also a constitutional "professor," so how is that law experience working out for us right now? All he's done is try to "dance around the law" in order to advance his agenda. He certainly hasn't been abiding by the constitution and the law.
What's you're point, I didn't vote for him? All I'm saying is it's probably a good idea for the guy that enforces our laws, picks our Supreme Court Justices, and passes out pardons should have an above average knowledge of our laws and legal system. I never said liberal lawyers, I never said communist lawyers, I never said ACLU lawyers.
