According to Gore: "... I went ahead and took initiative in helping to create the internet." The Internet was a US Military communications project back in the early 1970s. It was designed to allow communication between military installations in case of nuclear war with the USSR with all standard modes of communications obliterated. The idea was to make the network functional with parts of the network destroyed, such as major cities and military bases that would have been targeted. Al Gore did not contribute any technical expertise in creating the internet. However, while in the Senate, Gore sponsored the High Performance Computing and Communication Act of 1991, which laid led to the National Information Infrastructure, which Gore himself dubbed the "Informaton Super Highway." This network connected localities over high speed networks and evolved into the internet.
Al Gore did not invent the internet, nor has he ever claimed to have done so. On one of his Senate committees, he pushed for and got funded for projects that eventually evolved into the modern internet. No, Al Gore did not invent the internet. The internet was starting to be developed before he was in politics. However, he was involved in promoting the internet as the “information superhighway” and pushed for high speed communications via the High Performance Computing and Communication Act of 1991.
No, the internet was invented by Al Gore, however the great leader Kim Jong Il invented the hamburger and helped Bill Gates to invent the PC withouth taking any credit.
ARPANET, the original networking system that would soon become the internet, was established by the government organization ARPA. This organization enlisted the help of Vinton Cerf to develop the TCP/IP network, which became the foundation for the internet.

There is no vice president that has claimed to invent the internet. During the Democratic Presidential Nomination, Al Gore claimed to have taken the initiative in creating the internet. This would imply he had a political role in bringing matters before congress, but didn't provide the technical expertise to be an inventor of the technology behind the internet.
He ran for president and starred in the movie/documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" Contrary to some popular rumors, Al Gore did not invent the internet
