LEHRER: Well, let's keep -- let's stay on the subject for a moment. New question, related to this. There have been -- I figured this out -- in the last 20 years, there have been eight major actions involving the introduction of U.S. ground, air or naval forces. Let me name them: Lebanon, Grenada, Panama, the Persian Gulf, Somalia, Bosnia, Haiti, Kosovo. If you had been president, are any of those interventions -- would any of those interventions not have happened?
GORE: Can you run through the list again?
LEHRER: Sure. Lebanon.
GORE: I thought that was a mistake.
LEHRER: Grenada.
GORE: I supported that.
LEHRER: Panama.
GORE: I supported that one.
LEHRER: Persian Gulf.
GORE: Yes, I voted for it, supported it.
LEHRER: Somalia.
GORE: Well, of course, and that, again -- no, I think that that was ill-considered. I did support it at the time. It was in the previous administration, in the Bush-Quayle administration, and I think in retrospect the lessons there are ones that we -- that we should take very, very seriously.
