The late Bob Dole would have turned 100 years old on July 22. We looked back on his life and legacy as a U.S. Senator, Republican presidential nominee and native Kansan.
Politically, the late former U.S. Senator Bob Dole was known for his fierce partisanship and equally determined bipartisanship. On Saturday, July 22, the influential Kansas Republican would have turned 100 years old.
University of Kansas associate professor Patrick Miller told KCUR's Up To Date that Dole was a politician who wasn't afraid to make personal attacks and engage in partisan battles, but who was also able to compromise more than many Senators today.

Big party in Lawrence over the weekend celebrating what would have been his 100th birthday. He would wait at the veteran memorial sites in Wichita for Honor Flights to return home so he could provide an official welcome home. My friend Ryan Manuel was asked to play for the event held at the Dole Institute.
