He never seemed to have much energy in that 2008 campaign, perhaps because of his daughter's death.

I liked him, but found his reverse mortgage commercials annoying. Shocked to hear that he has died so young.

Nice montage. I was most impressed with Mr. Thompson when he was the ONLY candidate that even mentioned the word Federalism in his campaign for President. And he even knew what Federalism meant. RIP.

Fred Thompson would have made a great President. I love James Dobson but his criticism of Thompson helped 0bama.

Since others are posting great Fred T movie lines, one of my favorites from "No Way Out":

"Not ****, he's hom-sexual"

>I'll be damned<

"So will he if you believe the old Testament"

I may be in error, but I believe the delay had to do with an acting commitment.
