Nixon loyalist and Jack McCoy interlocutor Fred Dalton Thompson, dead at 73 (http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/02/politics/fred-thompson-dies-tennessee/index.html).
QuoteRenny Harlin, who directed "Die Hard 2," described Thompson as "a gentle giant whose loss is a tremendous one for both entertainment and politics."
"Fred was a sweet, funny and fiercely intelligent guy with a gentle heart—a bear of a man who was warm and considerate towards all those around him." Harlin said.
He said Thompson "anchored 'Die Hard 2' with his powerful presence in the air traffic control tower."

I was wondering the same thing about TJ Brown.
I was a Fred Backer for that all-too short time in 2008. He would have made a great President.

Maybe. A lot of guys would be a good president who are shitty candidates. Bill Bradley was my guy (relative to Bush and Gore) back in the day.

He certainly would have done a great job handling the reverse mortgage crisis.

Except he'd be dead.
Didn't stop Woodrow Wilson.
