During the early 1960's, William E. Miller was the son of German and Irish immigrants. He became the chairman of the Republican National Committee and a New York congressman. He was commonly described as a fiscal conservative with eastern roots and a Catholic Faith. While people outside of the state barely knew his name, he was chosen by Barry M.
