From Quiz Al Gore quotes

Answer: The internet

During an interview with Wolf Blitzer on CNN on March 9, 1999, the good Senator was asked to describe what separated him from another Democratic presidential hopeful, former Sen. Bill Bradley of New Jersey. This was the funny, fateful answer he uttered.
