I have a photo of myself posing with 
Former Senate Majority Leader Robert Dole 
(Bob Dole for President, 1996) 
After I met him through politics networking 
at a fancy hotel in DC, 
we simply clicked nicely.   Then later,
I met his wife Elizabeth Dole and
their beloved dog running around the 
Presidental campaign office just like normal people.
I even met their daughter Robin, too.
I'm NOT a real politican myself because
I never really care about "Republic" or "Democrat"
as long as if I like the person no matter what. 
When I met Bob Dole in person I like him more
in person, and he seem so different on
these newspapers TV etc... I'd support him
only because he happen to be one of
people with disabilities.  He's a war veteran
and got hurt badly and became disabled
at the war so he's sensitive about
these two issues:  people with disabilities
and war veterans.
