Al Gore features in EU election campaign video

This campaign video, produced by the European parliament to get voters to vote in the June 2009 European elections, features former US Vice President Al Gore. The video discusses EU achievements on climate change.

The video is part of a campaign with dozens of videos produced by the European Parliament.

This series of videos ignores calls for further institutional reforms of the European Union that would make EU-level politics more democratic.

we need SECULARISM AND MULTIETHINICTY IN EUROPE, without superficial groups, such as ones formed around what people think god looks like, there is no legitimate reason for racial conflict. this is what the bnp cannot see because they think in binary code.

spread the word. one europe. one ideology (secularism, freedom, democracy and equal rights for all), many races, one people.

religious tribal labels, and idoctranation of babies are the causes of division in society, not race. we need a secular government that does not encourage division and diversity, but unity and diversity. we need to start paying religions as much plitical attention as martian worshipping cults. then islam is relegated by default from europe. we dont need these labels. religion is NOT genetic, and the BNP is a facist reation to a problem the can see, but cant solve.

This is why religion is so dangerous. It's fraught with this kind of childish wish-thinking that, well no matter what heinous thing I do God will fix it. It's a sure sign of a deluded and undeveloped mind.

@Spenner56: The EU parliament definitely has to little power legislative and the Commision to much. Boycotting the Eu elections alone however won't solve this problem. I'm gonna vota for a party that wants to improve Demoracy in the EU and establish the pissibility for Europeans to initiate referendums. And I'm gonna sign petitions and demonstrate for more parliamentary democracy in Europa and more direct democracy in the European Countries and Europa alike.

Be the change you want to see was from Gandhi which was FIGHT this repression so how can the words be used in such a way. What blasphemy in this speech.

[Sheeple102]

when the US is in your campaigns in the UK it is because they are ONE government. The UK already lost most rights in full. This is now hitting America. Next China and Russia. What would Gandhi think of this, would starve until everyone saw what was going on is the SAME as back when he tried to open eyes of the world. Don't mock his words as the only joke he ever told was "what do you think of western civilization ... and he responded "would be nice to try sometime"

[Sheeple102]

but if they are lying what then?
