During the presidential election of 2000, the Democrats chose Vice President [[Al Gore]] to be the party's candidate for the presidency. Gore and [[George W. Bush]], the Republican candidate and son of former President George H.W. Bush, disagreed on a number of issues, including abortion, gun control, environmentalism, gay rights, tax cuts, foreign policy, public education, global warming, judicial appointments, and affirmative action. Gore told the [[NAACP]] that his father, Sen. [[Al Gore Sr.]], had lost his Senate seat because he voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964-a total fabrication.
