Nite-nite: Jack Kemp 1935-2009


Jack Kemp, the 1996 Republican VP candidate alongside Bob Dole, died Saturday after a relatively short battle with Cancer. Kemp was a fiscal conservative but took both right and left views on social subjects. He was an avid apponent to Roe v. Wade and abortion but took a more liberal stance on immigration and immigrants rights.


Kemp also enjoyed a level of success as an NFL quarterback for the Detroit Lions. Then, he joined the taxi squads of the New York Giants and the San Francisco 49ers.


Rest in Peace Jack Kemp
