Senator Allan Stuart Franken (D) Minn.The fun making has started about a comedian being a Senator, so I thought you ought to know something about him besides the comedian part, which he learned in high-school. Franken was born in NYC to Jewish parents but they mocved to Minn. Early in his life. He graduated from Harvard, Cum Laude, with a BA degree in Political Science. Franken is married (32 years), and has two kids--one a teacher with a Harvard Degree, and another a Mechanical Engineer from Princeton. He earned three EMMY awards and 7 nominations. He has written 5 NYT best-selling books, three in #1 slot. He admits to using drugs on Saturday Night Live, where he co-produced wrote and starred, but not since. He is Pro Choice and wants stricter gun controls. He is not a right wing democrat and doesn't hold with all of their platforms. As with any Senator (or Governor of Alaska), we will need to see how long and with what results he serves! He ought to beat Jessee Ventura and the SC governor!
