Jeff Flake

What draws me to Jeff Flake isn't the standard Republican résumé but the stubborn streak underneath it. Here's a man who served Arizona in both the House and Senate, then took the ambassadorship to Turkey, yet what lingers is his willingness to break ranks when conscience demanded it. I find that rarer and more valuable than any party loyalty. The detail I love most is symbolic: he hails from a town literally named Snowflake. There's something poetic about a politician rooted so deeply in a place that bears his family's mark, and it makes his sense of independence feel almost geological.
