'''Jack Kemp''' (b. 1935) was a congressman from the [[Buffalo]] area who led the movement for tax cuts in the 1980s. His legislation, entitled the "Kemp-Roth" tax cuts, embodied the insight of [[supply-side economics]] that cutting taxes could both help the economy and increase government revenue. A former star football player in the fledgling [[American Football League]], Kemp ran unsuccessfully for president in 1988 and was the unsuccessful [[Republican]] nominee for the vice-presidency in 1996. He also served for four years as the [[Secretary of Housing and Urban Development]] ([[HUD]]) under President [[George H.W. Bush]].
