The entrepreneur, not the politician

Al Gore has made clear he has no intention of sitting in the Oval Office. But he might just aspire to be an Wall Street darling: His Current TV filed initial public offering papers with the SEC today, effectively testing the waters to see if the indie cable net can snag upwards of $100 million. The network, which hit airwaves in August 2005 and was founded by Gore and Joel Hyatt, reported revenue of $63.8 million in 2007, with loses totaling $9.9 million. If it's a go, you'll be able to buy shares in uber-chic programming under the ticker symbol CRTM.
