GORE HAPPIER THAN BUSH?

GORE HAPPIER THAN BUSH?

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. (Wireless Flash) -- If a happy President is a good President, Al Gore should be elected in November. That's according to Florida-based "happiness researcher" Dr. David Niven, who recently analyzed both candidates to see who's the happiest. Although both Gore and Bush are much happier than the average American, the researcher claims Gore is slightly more upbeat -- partially because he feels less guilty about his past drug use. Happiness may seem like a bizarre reason to elect a president, but Niven claims happy presidents are statistically less likely to sleep with interns or break into the Watergate Hotel. He discusses how to be happy in a new book, "The 100 Simple Secrets Of Happy People" (HarperSanFrancisco).
