1. Jack Kemp represented Suburban Buffalo and the wheat/grape farm towns south of Erie County

That isn't Upstate, that's Western NY.

He was the very last Republican that was worth a cup of piss in a forest fire IMHO

2. Forward-thinking on race relations, IIRC, due to his experience with the Buffalo Bills.

Am I thinking of the right guy?

[The Polack MSgt]

3. Yeah, that was the guy. He was actually interested in structural improvements in Govt. programs

Affecting minorities.

He supported programs in housing and development to try to correct some of the most egregious remnants of segregation.

And when he died, there was nobody left in the GOP who gave a shit ever again, The End.
