[DEC. 14, 2000] At
8 p.m. central standard time, Vice President Al Gore conceded the Presidential
race to Governor George W. Bush more than a month after election day.
Gore delivered a powerful, yet gracious speech relinquishing his pursuit
of the highest office in the country.
At 9 p.m. Bush made a thoughtful speech of acceptance promising to bring
both parties together. Both candidates emphasized working together as
Americans in the best interest of the country.
