THE AMERICAS
U.S. DEPORTATION
TO HAITI ON HOLD

Former Vice President Al Gore, pledges his support to U.S presidential candidate Hillary Clinton as they appeared together for the first time at a
rally at Miami Dade College’s Kendall Campus in Miami on Tuesday. ‘The stakes in this election simply could not be higher,’ Gore said at the event.

In storm-hit Florida,
Clinton ties Hurricane
Matthew to climate change
Hillary Clinton brought Al
Gore to Miami to warn about
climate change — and to
recount the pain of losing the
2000 election.

Hillary Clinton brought Al
Gore to Miami on Tuesday to
underscore her message that she
will fight climate change — unlike Donald Trump, who has said
he’s “not a big believer.”
“We cannot risk putting a
climate denier in the White
House,” she declared.
Clinton mentioned increased
damage from last week’s Hurricane Matthew due to higher sea
levels. But it was former Vice
President Gore — ever the academic, climate-change science
evangelist — who scored the
Miami disaster trifecta. He tied
global warming to Matthew —
“from a tropical storm to a Category 5 hurricane in just 36 hours,
that’s extremely unusual” — and
to the faster spread of the Zika
virus.
“Mother Nature is giving us a
very clear and powerful message,” he intoned.
What seemed to amuse the
crowd most at Miami Dade College’s Kendall Campus, however,
was Gore’s painful recollection
of the 2000 presidential election
in Florida.
“"Your vote really, really,
really counts,” the former nominee said. “You can consider me
as an Exhibit A for that.”
Some in the audience of 1,600
— the older ones, Gore joked —
groaned. He lost the state, and
the race, by just 537 votes.
“You won! You won!” people
chanted.
Said Gore: “I don’t want you
to be in a position years from
now where you welcome Hillary
Clinton and say, ‘Actually, you
did win…’ ”

For five and a half years, Marc
Gonsalves and two colleagues —
all American contractors — were
hostages of Colombia’s FARC
guerrillas. During those 1,967
days, Gonsalves saw friends
executed. He was chained by the
neck, locked in a cage and lived
in fear he would end up buried in
a forlorn hole in the jungle.
As Colombia tries to salvage a
