Other than Lincoln and Washington, I don't know if he existed.
Yes, like above, Ron Paul is a good example.

Ron Paul The congressman from Texas has demonstrated extreme political courage. He has unwaveringly held to his beliefs of supporting the US Constitution and to follow his belefs in smaller govt and less taxes.
He has also not sucumbed to taking the bribes from the special interest groups and the corprtations who constantly go to Capitol Hill and splash their money around to buy the votes of the congressman and senators.

I was impressed when Dennis Kucinich spoke out against the current healthcare bill. He stood up to his own party and stood on principals. I may not agree with his philosophies, but I applaud an act of honesty in the government when I see it (almost never.)

Senator Hillary Clinton for standing up for what she believes in and furthering the cause of women in the US, and having the courage to run for President in a male dominated government and society.

Abraham Lincoln. He fought the Civil War to obtain "malice for none and justice for all".
You did not say it had to be a LIVING official.

Well I'd say Joe Lieberman for one- for standing against his party. After that, any politician who is willing to address the looming disaster in social security will have my support- regardless of their political party.

Ron Paul is the only one left, I fear.That's why the controlled media do their best to downplay the enormous grassroots support he is getting.
