The next time I see him I’ll let him know you want to get in touch.
(I’ve actually met him twice.:))
You sneak the telephone onto Al Gore’s chair when he’s taking a seat.
Well, my replies earlier were sarcastic because famous people go through a lot of work to avoid having random people calling them, otherwise they would have to put up with calls all times of day and night with people of varying degrees of politeness and/or sanity. So the real answer is, unless you have a compelling reason (and it is Al Gore who decides if the reason in compelling) you can’t get him on the phone–and if you did, somebody screwed up.
No. You get down off a duck.

wow—some people are smarter than me. 
I tried to understand what that was all about, but gave up.
I guessed it was a music reference or somfin’ like dat.
Do I have to resign from the Dope now ? 
I admire him immensely, and hope to secure his endorsement for a project.
And that’s the problem. If there was one person who “admired him greatly,” he (or any other celebrity) would probably make the time for you. But there are probably 50 thousand other people just like you out there wanting a piece of his time, which is why he needs some sort of filter to keep from having to take those 50,000 phone calls.
Naw, I didn’t get it right away either. I could smell a pun though, so I kept at it until I figured it out. Gotta study up for when I’m making my own dad jokes one day…
If you do that; then ignorance will win!
(though in this particular case, that might be better)
When you do, there’s a thread for it!
i think it would be better to send a written request, along with details of your project.
I think I have a scheme that might work. Like with most of my schemes, first you must acquire a teenage girl. Then you convince her to make one of those cringe-worthy YouTube videos asking Al Gore to be her prom date. Then, when he shows up for the date, you jump out from behind a tree and ask him to support your cause.
Spoilered for those who want to figure it out on their own:
Al Gore rhythm = algorithm
Ask him if he has Prince Albert in a can. Whatever he says, then say “Well let him out.”
Then you can tell everyone you got Al Gore.
He sounds a little high pitched and lilting, but not in a good way - YMMV. But, then, well, very few people really [del]understand[/del] get Al Gore, on the phone or otherwise.
