Now the U.S. Supreme Court has spoken. Let there be no doubt. While I strongly disagree with the court's decision, I accept it. I accept the finality of this outcome, which will be ratified next Monday in the Electoral College. And, tonight, for the sake of our unity of the people and the strength of our democracy, I offer my concession.
Gore accepts the Supreme Court's decision regarding the election and emphasizes the importance of unity and democracy.

So you are calling for swift action to stop climate change, and that is the right message, and I believe you are the right messengers.
I think it's crucial. They are the largest global warming polluter in the world, we are second to them. And obviously, cooperation between our two countries is essential.
I think that those who have tried to continue promoting doubt and suspicion about the efficacy of our democracy are really performing in an anti-American way and they should be held to account.
We laughed together, fought like hell together for what we wanted our country to be. Prayed together. Thought for a season we had won together, but, well, you know that part of the story. The stakes are high. The pressures are great.
