He's been described as a deeply religious man, already telling us he's prayed a bit with Vice President Gore as heads on to Nashville to meet up with the vice president for tomorrow's official announcement that he now not only is Al Gore's running mate but the first Orthodox Jew to be on a major party ticket in the history of the United States. In fact, the senator even told the AFL-CIO convention in his state earlier this morning that to be Gore's running mate is, to quote him, "a dream beyond anything I ever dreamed, being on a national ticket." And now he's on his way to answer the call. Jan Hopkins.
