[chanting together] we want gore! we want gore!ocratic process calls for a vote on election day. it does not call for us to continue voting until someone likes the outcome. - it appears that more than 20,000 voters in the palm beach county, who in all likelihood thought they were voting for al gore had their votes counted for pat buchanan or not counted at all. - normally, at that point, you could be planning the transition, you would be having meetings about personnel, and there we sat, and nobody really quite knew what to do. - should the verdict that has been announced thus far be confirmed, we'll be ready, and i think that's what the country needs to know. - the battle over the ballot moves from the counting room to a courtroom. - when the supreme court at 2:00 halted the vote, i knew that was over. because, you know, when scalia and those guys get involved you're like, "they're not-- oh, what, really?" - i think that the reality was bush had a better operation and it was a sufficient operation to prevail when the other guys ma

al gore: just moments ago i spoke to george w. bush and congratulated him on becoming the 43rd president of the united states and i promised him i wouldn't call him back this time. i offered to meet with him as soon as possible so we can start to heal the divisions of the campaign and the contest through which we just passed. almost a century and a half ago, senator steven douglas told abraham lincoln who just defeated him for the presidency, partisan feeling must yield to patriotism. i'm with you, mr. president, and god bless you. well, in that same spirit, i say to president-elect bush that what remains partisan ranker must now be put aside and may god bless his stewardship of this country. neither he nor i anticipated this long and difficult road. certainly neither of us wanted it to happen. yet, it came and now it has ended. resolved as it must be resolved through the honored institutions of our democracy. over the library of one of our great law schools is inscribed the motto, not under man but under god and law. that's the r

early in the campaign, by the end there was so much tension as manifest in the fact that gore did not really want bill clinton and i think to gore's everlasting detriment, did not want bill clinton campaigning for him so that would have been one where there was tension but the most tension i experienced or covered was that from the clinton -- allegedly clinton -- there's a dispute about this clinton to george w. bush where the staffers took the w's off the keyboards and a lot of them dispute that or at least dispute how widespread that was. olivier: one of the most famously terrible transitions was you reagan to h.w. bush. if you talk to people who are legit, all they do is transition politics. they'll tell you that was a terrible transition. there were a lot of people in the reagan administration so assumed they would have the same job or be promoted and they were not. they were shown the exits. and there were some policy changes as well. that's why those folks are talking about the difficulty of intraparty. the only one i covered closely was clinton into w. and the thing that struck

george bush got he elected, having half a million fewer votes than al gore. this is a lightning shot, really unlikely, something that hasn't happened for 100 years, maybe wouldn't hab for 100 more years and the country moved on and people forgot about it. this is twice in 16 years and more importantly it is twice in 16 years with the same party benefiting. >> let's talk about legitimacy, when this happened to rutherford b. hayes and it was decided in congress under political circumstances that he would be president, he was referred to as be fraud b. hayes. is this system almost unfair to the winner in some ways? >> that's an excellent question. again this is hypothetical until about 16 years ago, didn't seem real. now it seems real. there is another issue of legitimacy also, that the united states has been at the forefront of democracy proposition world over. we have been out there talk about the importance of having free and fair democratic elections. now when you have governments that want to push back and say hey we don't need this free and fair -- >> stew
