You could research the area that he lives and the number blocks that have been released by various carriers in that area, then start cold-calling all the numbers. This may be tedious, but you could probably get a good Al Gore rhythm going. ---

AL Gore writes books and does movies, so I’m guessing he has a manager or agent who would have his contact info. You would have to track them down of course. Or you could call Bill Clinton. I bet he would have a way of getting hold of him. I found this on the Internet, but I have no idea if it’s accurate. HONORABLE AL GORE 2100 West End Avenue Suite 620 Nashville, TN 37203 Mr. And Mrs. Gore have no direct email address according to the Al Gore Support Center, but scheduling requests can me made by calling the following numbers: Phone: (615) 327-2227 Fax: (615) 327-1323 ---

Offer to book him as a speaker and be ready to pony up a hundred K or so ([http://publicspeaking.co.ke/post/10-highest-paid-public-speakers-in-the-world](http://publicspeaking.co.ke/post/10-highest-paid-public-speakers-in-the-world)). Or maybe ask him for a discount, or if he’ll charge by the word. ---

No, not really, not without more information. What do you need to talk to him about? Why does it need to be him? Why does it need to be over the phone? ---

Or maybe ask him for a discount, or if he’ll charge by the word. You don’t even have to be ready to pony up! You could just mention to his manager that you have oodles of cash laying around and want to book him, but first you’ll need to run something by him on the phone. ---
