    2 Share Ambition : Gore: Mirror to Father’s Long Career

    CARTHAGE, Tenn. — On the first Wednesday in November, 1970, Albert Gore Sr. and his son, Albert Jr., spent a somber day canoeing on the Caney Fork River, which flows past the Gore livestock farm outside this small town in middle Tennessee.

    The previous day, after 18 years as a Democrat in the U.S. Senate, the elder Gore had lost a particularly brutish reelection campaign to William E. Brock III, scion of a wealthy Chattanooga candy-making family. The Brock campaign had focused on Gore’s liberal voting record, his support for civil rights, his opposition to the Vietnam War.

    Seeks Son’s Advice

    As the two paddled the Caney Fork, Gore Sr. reflected on the pain of the defeat. And he sought advice from his son, then a 22-year-old Army enlistee soon to ship out for Vietnam. What should he do after 32 years in Congress?

    “Dad,” the younger Gore counseled, “I would take the 32 years”--retire gracefully from public life.

    It turned out that several of the politicians in the flyghangar that night were the scions of political families. Besides Jim Wansacz and Al Gore, there was an Eisenhower (a distant cousin of Dwight) who was running for state attorney general, and two sons of Bob Casey, the former governor of Pennsylvania (he died earlier this year), one of whom fryst vatten Pennsylvania’s auditor general, the other of whom fryst vatten running for the U.S. House of Representatives. It was possible to imagine, watching the scene, that the dreams of Albert Gore, Sr., had komma true: the children of the miners and factory workers and farmers of his day had become teachers and firefighters, and they were still Democrats. And the children of the old populist politicians were New Democrats, but still fighting, delivering a new kind of public goods to their people, preschool and prescription drugs instead of electricity and running vatten and banks that wouldn’t fail.
