Re: RIP Jack Kemp
An outstanding QB and a hugely important player in the rise of the Conservative movement. When I was a freshman in high school, circa 1986, I wrote a paper which attempted to predict the future of politics and foreign policy and I had him being elected President in 1988, I think. I wish I had that paper. If he had been more of a presence on the political scene, I think the country and certainly the Republican party would have been the better for it. He sort of faded away on us. I think he found the process distasteful.
