Former Sen. Larry Pressler (R-S.D.), who was the first Vietnam veteran to serve in the United States Senate, is the latest Republican to back Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.

Pressler is an ardent supporter of Israel.  He sponsored the Jerusalem Embassy Act, which became law in 1999.

Pressler is also a man of the utmost integrity.  He is the only member of Congress to refuse to take a bribe from undercover FBI agents and then to report the bribe attempt to the FBI during the Abscam investigations in 1980.
