[edit intro]

Robert Marion La Follette (June 14, 1855 - June 18, 1925), was an American lawyer and politician. He served as Governor of Wisconsin and represented that state in both houses of Congress during his long career in public service. In 1959, the U.S. Senate honored La Follette as one of the five most outstanding Senators in American history. Although he was a Republican for most of his political career, in 1924 he ran for President of the United States of America as the nominee of the Progressive Party. He died in 1925, four days after his 70th birthday.
