Excerpt:

“Kappa Sigma has always represented responsibility, kindness and service to others – qualities that have shaped my life in nearly eight decades as a Brother,” Senator Dole said in his acceptance letter. “To have been selected as the Kappa Sigma Fraternity Man of the Year on two separate occasions is a significant honor that means a great deal to me.”

“Brother Dole represents one of the greatest statesmen and public servants that the United States and the State of Kansas have ever known,” said Adam J. Merillat, president of Kappa Sigma’s international board of directors. “Brother Dole has accomplished so much since he was first awarded the Kappa Sigma Man of the Year Award in 1970. Kappa Sigma is grateful for his service and privileged to again honor Brother Dole with this award.”

I think SNL did a skit where Bob Dole was on MTV's The Real World(?). Someone sat in his chair and he said something like "NO ONE SITS IN BOB DOLE'S CHAIR!" before dumping the guy out of the chair. The other tenants kicked him out and he was seen lugging his chair down the street.


I voted for him. There were a couple of people I knew who spoke like he was the devil incarnate but could never give me a specific reason why.

As a note, I consider myself pretty far left (15-20% of the population more liberal?) and I will say that, IMO, of the Republican nominees for President since I have been able to vote (1986) (Bush Sr, Dole, W, McCain, Romney and Trump), he is the one I think most fondly of.
