Progressive Senator from Minnesota during the 90’s, one of the few to vote against the Iraq war. Small plane mysteriously crashed a week before election day. The pilot was a white collar criminal with lots of issues.

At a meeting full of war veterans in Willmar, Minn., days before his death, Wellstone told attendees that Cheney told him, “If you vote against the war in Iraq, the Bush administration will do whatever is necessary to get you. There will be severe ramifications for you and the state of Minnesota.”
