Доул, Боб цитаты

Ро́берт Джо́зеф «Боб» До́ул — американский политик-республиканец.

Участник Второй мировой войны, в горах Италии получил тяжёлое ранение, провёл три года в госпиталях, его правая рука так и осталась парализованной; имеет три боевые награды. Получил юридическое образование и степень и работает юристом.

Сенатор от Канзаса , занимал компромиссную позицию между правым и либеральным крылом республиканцев. В 1985—1996 лидер республиканцев в Сенате. Кандидат в вице-президенты США на выборах 1976 года при действовавшем президенте Джеральде Форде и в президенты США на выборах 1996 года; кандидатом в вице-президенты был Джек Кемп. Оба раза потерпел поражение от демократов . На выборах 1996 года стал старейшим политиком, выдвинутым на пост президента впервые. Его намерение сократить налоги и урезать социальные программы было воспринято избирателями отрицательно, и лишь упростило Клинтону кампанию; в коллегии выборщиков Клинтон набрал на 220 голосов больше. Доул стал единственным в истории представителем двух крупнейших партий, выдвинутым и в вице-президенты, и в президенты, но не избранным ни на тот, ни на другой пост.

Его жена Элизабет Доул — также деятель Республиканской партии, бывший министр транспорта и труда США, сенатор от штата Северная Каролина. Wikipedia
