Barack Obama: Obama Statement on Former Vice President Gore's Nobel Peace Prize
Chicago, IL -- October 12, 2007 -- "By having the courage to challenge the skeptics in Washington and lead on the climate crisis facing our planet, Al Gore has advanced the cause of peace and richly deserves this reward.
His voice and his vision have awakened the conscience of America to the urgency of this threat, and now we must take bold action so that our children inherit a planet that is cleaner, safer, and more peaceful for generations to come," said Barack Obama.
