Obomba was doing his debate “prep” in Henderson, Nevada, which has an elevation of just under 2000 ft. So, the altitude change was not 5000 ft. it was about 3300 ft.

Gore should have blamed it on global warming since that would explain why Obama sucks everywhere else—especially in D.C.!

To think that Gore came within less than a thousand votes of becoming president is frightening.

The Democrats have now demonstrated a real knack for choosing their leaders over the past 40 years! From George McGovern to present, we have had many other than optimal Democrats.

An item of note is that the dark sides frequently come to the fore AFTER they stop running for office and AFTER the MSM ceases the favorable coverage! Gore belongs to this group as does John Edwards, that golden boy-lawyer of the tort bar.

As you say, thank God for his favor!

You should Give the former divinity school dropout/ current expert in global warming ..global cooling….Climate change , inventor of the internet a break. Al Gore has a valid point. Per the Peter principal Obama has been elevated to a position miles above his abilities thanks to affirmative action and white guit.

“I doubt this is the reason but if you are coming from near sea level to 5,000 feet you do need at least 24 hours to acclimate.”

Maybe if you’re running in a marathon.

The air in planes is pressurized so that doesn’t help in acclimitizing to high altidue.

Aircraft pressurization is set to a pressure alitude of 8000ft, so yes it does.

When I’ve gone skiing in CO, it usually takes me a day to get acclimatized. Granted, that is at an even higher altitude than 5,000 feet.
