Citizens Dedicated To Preserving Our Constitutional Republic
Fred Thompson, Former Senator, Actor and Presidential Candidate, Dies at 73
You might remember the libs calling his wife Jerry "a trophy wife".
Mr. Thompson had an unusual career, moving back and forth between national politics and mass-market entertainment. He left a regular role on the hit NBC drama “Law & Order” to run for president in 2008.
On television and on movie screens, Mr. Thompson was known for playing authoritative characters, but he was sometimes ambivalent in his political aspirations. While he brought gravitas to his on-screen characters, he often struggled on the campaign trail, especially during his unsuccessful run for the Republican presidential nomination in 2008.
