Senator Robert Byrd died at 92
by Zivka Deleva


U.S Democrats have lost one of their fellows in the Congress few days ago. Senator Robert Byrd at the age of 92 died on Monday. He was the member of the Congress with the longest mandate ever. He died at Inova Fairfax Hospital near Washington, D.C. where he was hospitalized with a heat-related illness. He had the Senator’s seat since 1952! As experts say, this loss is not going to cost the governing Democrats their predominance in the Congress, expressed with figures it is 59 counter 41. The U.S legislative permits in case of death, the mandate not to be finished, but replaced with another politician. In this case, it is very much arguably that the West Virginia Gove! rnor Joe Manchin is going to take over Mr. Byrd's seat that belongs to him two more years. Byrd was a politician which was known for his civil right fights. Maybe the Democrat's dominance is not going to be endangered, but Byrd's efforts to tighten the regulation of the financial industry it seems like is going to wait for a while, or drop in the water. But the fight is not yet lost, because it seems like the Democrats are doing well in getting the 60 Senate votes as much they need. Byrd is a history of himself. He has been close to more than ten U.S presidents. President Obama Barrack called Byrd a true champion and that the Senate of the United Stated of America has lost a “venerable institution”. Everybody agreed, no matter which party he belonged, that he was a man with a fighter’s spirit and abiding faith. Once he said about him self: "I love to serve. I love the Senate. If I could live another 100 years, I'd like to continue in the Senate," – ! Byrd said in a Reuters interview, for years ago. May him rest ! in peace , and I hope that his example is going to be inspirational to a lot of young politicians.
