John Lewis, Dead at 80
He had pancreatic cancer.
Civil rights activist, long time Congressman, former president of the SNCC, close associate of Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the original Freedom Riders, and called, "The Conscience of the Congress."
The eulogies are coming from both sides of the aisle.
My suggestion is to look at what these people do, not what they say.
