Jack Kemp, kindly and forceful enthusiast, had many claims to our appreciation, but I think many of us who served in the Reagan Revolution will remember him most fondly for the prescient leadership he showed in the seminal years of policy debate in the late 70s that preceded the Gipper's election.
He (and Bill Steiger of Wisconsin) led the original supply side revolt in the House of Representatives and his influence on the emerging thinking of the Reagan team was immense. Our friend and former colleague Richard Rahn pays him apt tribute in today's Washington Times.
