Former Vice President Al Gore was in Washington Thursday, and shockingly it wasn’t to talk about the environment. Gore served as the guest of honor at a luncheon held at Il Mullino New York, in conjunction with Sidwell Friends School, to raise money for the school’s “Al Gore Scholarship Fund.”
Gore had a few personal connections to the event besides his namesake on the scholarship. The same Quaker day school that currently teaches Malia and Sasha Obama also counts Gore’s son, Al Gore III, as an alum. But he we think he didn’t appear just to support the school — we’re sure the hosts, Democratic super-donors Al and Claire Dwoskin, also played a role.
