Senator from North Carolina ('03 - '09), Secretary of Transportation under President Reagan and Secretary of Labor in the G. H. W. Bush administration. Liddy met her future husband, Bob Dole, in 1972 and the couple married in 1975. Following elected political careers, the Doles have remained active as unofficial political advisors and involved with social causes such as the Red Cross and Wounded Warriors. "Politics is not a job for insecure people. On the night of my nomination, half of America didn't know my name. The other half thought I was something to drink. On the campaign trail I was variously called Bob Doyle, Bob Dale and Bob Daley. I spent an hour one morning stranded at a horse farm in Lexington, Kentucky. I like horses, but they don't vote. Later that same day I was scheduled to visit a carnival in Trenton, New Jersey." (p 168).
