?Al Gore got drunk and almost bought Twitter!

?Al Gore got drunk and almost bought Twitter!

A new book reveals that Al Gore got close to buying Twitter because he got drunk with the founders.




In 2009, Al Gore got together with Twitter founders Evan Williams and Biz Stone and offered to buy Twitter from them.




They spent a night 'pouring copious amounts of wine and Patron tequila.' Sadly for him, the Twitter founders didn't bite and they're now filing an IPO that might be worth $20 billion.




Gore recently told Bloomberg that he's very bullish on Twitter because it's become a global utility and it's a great business.




Gore has been very involved in the tech world. As a senator, he was instrumental in the research that led to the Internet and has been on the board of Apple for a long time.
