 | | Albert, Sr.'s, parents, Allen and Maggie Denny Gore, grew tobacco, feed, and vegetables, and raised cattle, hogs, and chickens on modest acreage near the town of Possum Hollow. |
 | | Albert Gore Sr., who had never lost his roots in the yeoman hill country of Middle Tennessee, and who had tried to make sure his son didn't either, was not amused. |
