Is she going to write a story about a young, underage daughter of a fictitious Senator from Tennessee who is arrested for public intoxication outside a high school party in a wealthy Washington suburb?

Kristin Gore, daughter of former Vice President Al Gore, is writing a novel.If it is as entertaining/enlightening as the average episode of Futurama, it will not have siblings.

Everything about the cancellation of "Futurama" is sad, Gorons included.

Why hasn't she "enlisted" into the armed forces to be a good "patriot"?
