Jack Kemp, the ex-quarterback, congressman, one-time vice-presidential nominee and self-described "bleeding-heart conservative" died Saturday.

Sad day, I always liked him.

RIP indeed - IMO a likeable politician. As those types go anyways

Kemp had the ability to be conservative but not polemic like the current group. I think he was completely wrong on taxes and that has contributed to the mess we are in today but I still fell he was a good guy.

Outside of the political crap, I still remember him playing for Buffalo.

R.I.P. Jack. 🙁

My dad took my brother and I to see him play back in the 60's when we lived in Buffalo. I still remember that crewcut, which we all had.
This is how I remember him. I had his card at one time.

Now he is with my dad.

He was a class act. Sad that he is gone ...

Condolence for him.......he's a good person. May he rest in peace and God will welcome him into his kingdom.

God bless him.

He really did represent everything that was good about the United States. I always thought he'd make a great President. It's a shame we never got the chance to find out.

While I'm certainly glad he didn't get a chance to put his fiscal policies into action as VPOTUS or POTUS, he was certainly the kind of politician who could disagree without being disagreeable, a trait that is sorely lacking today.

My dad said he was one of hell of a good quarterback.
