WASHINGTON (AFP) - Supporters are urging former US vice president Al Gore (news - web sites) to make another run for the White House, in the absence of a clear Democratic frontrunner in the early campaign season.
Gore, the Democratic party's candidate in the closely contested 2000 election, took himself out of contention for the November 2004 presidential race last December, after months of indecision.
CNN television and other US media reported Wednesday that supporters were lobbying Gore to toss his hat into the ring.
The Hill newspaper, a Washington-based political daily, reported Wednesday that former Democratic operatives are hoping to revive a Gore candidacy in the belief that US President George W. Bush (news - web sites) is a more vulnerable incumbent than he was just a few months ago.
The daily reported however that Kiki McLean, Gore's spokeswoman, denied that her boss was mulling a presidential candidacy.
There are nine declared Democratic contenders, but as yet no clear frontrunner for the Democratic nomination.
