 Speech by U.S. Senator Chris Dodd 1997 -WENDELL FORD
President, I should note on a personal level I was a law student in Kentucky when Wendell Ford was Governor of the State of Kentucky, and I developed a fondness and affection for him from afar as a student in that State at the University of Louisville many years ago.
Wendell Ford served his fellow Kentuckians for the past 30 years, first in the State senate of that State, then in the Governors Mansion, as I have already mentioned, and finally here in the U.S. Senate, where he has been a Member for the past 22 years.
