A pioneering heart-lung transplant surgeon, Bill Frist was elected to the U.S. Senate from Tennessee in '94 and rose quickly through the ranks to become Majority Leader. Fulfilling his pledge to serve just two terms, he left in '07 and has been mentioned as a possible candidate for governor of Tennessee in 2010. Frist sits on the board of trustees of Save the Children and, each year, performs surgery during medical mission trips to developing countries. He also co-chairs the bi-partisan ONE Vote '08 campaign.
