Senator Sam Nunn of Georgia - Senate Armed Services Committee - and Senator John Warner of Virginia - of the Senate Armed Services Committee announce the military's Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy at the US Capitol in Washington
Samuel Augustus Nunn Jr. (born September 8, 1938) is an American lawyer and politician. Currently the co-chairman of the Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI), a charitable organization working to prevent catastrophic attacks with nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons, Nunn served for 24 years as a United States Senator from Georgia (1972 until 1997) as a member of the Democratic Party. His political experience and credentials on national defense reportedly made him a potential running mate for Democratic presidential candidates John Kerry (2004) and Barack Obama (2008).
