Far into the future, a thousand year old Al Gore had grown tired of ruling as Emperor of the Moon, and traveled deep below the surface of the Moon to consult the Mighty Moon Worm. Unbeknownst to Gore, the great beast had been corrupted, and soon the Emperor himself fell victim to the unknown enemy that dwelled beneath the Moon. Gore under the influence of the enemy managed to rebuild his former physical body. Meanwhile, Philip Fry and the crew of the Planet Express had traveled to the Moon under orders by Professor Farnsworth, and soon discovered the corruption it had fallen to. They battle through robotic soldiers of the Moon Empire as they seek to confront Emperor Gore. Knowing he would be defeated by open combat, Al Gore hatched a plan to escape his fate. He would kidnap Professor Farnsworth and extort him for the location of a time machine prototype that he had built. Though Fry and the crew resisted, Gore’s plan had been successful, and he found the time machine.

As the prototype had never seen use, no one knew what would happen next, and to the shock of everyone it worked…at least partially. Philip Fry of the Planet Express crew was sucked into the time portal, transported to the year 2000, alongside Al Gore…as well as 50 million other people from the 31st century. Among the 50 million were John Zoidberg and Bender Rodriguez, though Turanga Leela and Professor Farnsworth remained within the 31st century by sheer chance. While they hatched a rescue mission to save Fry, there would be another foil to their plans. Bodiless head in a jar Richard Nixon and headless Spiro Agnew stole the time machine prototype from the Planet Express traveling in Earth orbit. When it went off this time, only Nixon managed to be transported, which left Agnew behind. Though dejected, Agnew would have managed to have the time machine repaired, arriving a few days later to the 2nd millennium.

By the point Agnew arrived, Nixon had found common ground with the still alive Henry Kissinger, forming a ticket for the Presidency. George Bush was later thrown out of contention for the Republican nomination after being kidnapped by “unknown assailants.” As such, Nixon and Kissinger unanimously were voted to be the party’s nominees. Meanwhile, 31st century Al Gore had replaced 21st century Al Gore, who had been unceremoniously vacuumed into the space time continuum. Not realizing much had changed (even if this Gore had a noticeable scar on his neck from attaching his head back to his body), Gore became the Democratic nominee for President with relative ease. Fry, struck with the amazement of returning to his original time period, eventually recognizes Zoidberg as a familiar face. The two later decide to form the Continuity Party as they realize the Gore and Nixon running are from their time, hoping to put an end to their evil plots.
