He was:

1. The son of a Repub preacher.

2. A very outspoken opponent to the Vietnam War

3. A tireless leader in the fight against hunger and poverty

4. A proud supporter of the Civil Rights Movement and Equal Rights

In other words, he was MORE than a politician. He actually gave a d*mn about his fellow man.

May he Rest. In. Peace.
