        During his 36 years on Capitol Hill, Dole became one of the most influential legislators and party leaders in the Senate, combining a talent for compromise with a caustic wit. He announced in February that he’d been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer.

        Dole was the 1976 GOP vice presidential candidate on the losing ticket with President Gerald Ford. He tried three times to become president. The last was in 1996, when he won the Republican nomination only to see President Bill Clinton reelected.

        "Senator Bob Dole was a war hero, a political leader, and a statesman." U.S. dignitaries and veterans mourn former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, a WWII veteran and GOP presidential candidate who served 36 years in Congress. Dole has died at 98.http://apne.ws/IRy69dc
