In 2000, Joe Lieberman ran for vice-president as a Democratic candidate, but this year he left the party and supported a third-party bid for the White House. Tragically, the former Senator from Connecticut passed away at the age of 82 due to complications from a fall. His family announced his death on Wednesday and described him as someone who loved God, his family, and America. Throughout his life, Lieberman worked in the public interest.
Lieberman was known for being a centrist in US politics, but this position was becoming increasingly rare. He founded No Labels, a bipartisan group that aimed to launch a presidential ticket to challenge Joe Biden and Donald Trump in the upcoming election. However, the group had not yet found suitable candidates for the campaign. Lieberman’s passing is a great loss for American politics and will be deeply felt by many.
