Democratic presidential hopeful Al Gore said he does not plan to promote the fact that he is a born-again Christian during the election campaign, according to sources at an off-the-record meeting he had Monday night with 50 Jewish organizational leaders and activists in New York. The vice president was accompanied by three Jewish Democratic members of Congress from New York: Reps. Gary Ackerman, Eliot Engel and Nita Lowey, all of whom backed his candidacy.
