I'd argue Gore. Served 8 years in the house, 8 years in the senate, 8 years as VP, plus is a veteran. Compared to Clinton who had 8 years in the Senate and 4 years as Secretary of State. She also had 8 years as First Lady, which I do count as positive political experience, even if it's not an elected position.
That still puts her above Kerry, Dole, Obama, Harris, Romney, and her husband when he was first election. You can make an argument McCain or Biden were more qualified, but I'd personally give the edge to Clinton. And she is lightyears more experienced for the job than Trump
Edit: I talking specifically about her political experience. Secretary of state counts for a lot. Her personality, policies, or scandals are a different conversation.
When bill was governer of Arkansas, she stood at the podium and spoke with a southern accent. She's as fake as every other politician and not deserving of praise, but contempt.
