Anyone know the VP who referenced the paper? Doesn't seem to be mentioned. My best guess is Gore.

Living VPs Joe Biden — VP 2009–2017 (became President in 2021; after that he’s called a former VP and former president)

Not likely the one referenced after 2017 because he became president in 2021, so later citations would likely call him a former president instead of former VP.

Dan Quayle — VP 1989–1993, alive through 2026

Al Gore — VP 1993–2001, alive through 2026

Mike Pence — VP 2017–2021, alive through 2026

Kamala Harris — VP 2021–2025, alive through 2026

J.D. Vance — VP 2025–present (as of 2026)
