George McGovern Quotes:

Ocupation: Historian

Life: July 19, 1922 - October 21, 2012

Birthday: July 19

Death: October 21

From secrecy and deception in high places; come home, America. From military spending so wasteful that it weakens our nation; come home, America. From the entrenchment of special privileges in tax favoritism; from the waste of idle lands to the joy of useful labor; from the prejudice based on race and sex; from the loneliness of the aging poor and the despair of the neglected sick - come home, America.

- George McGovern
