"I simply do not have the heart for another six-year term," Thompson said in a written statement at the time. "Serving in the Senate has been a tremendous honor, but I feel that I have other priorities that I need to attend to."
However, he returned to politics in 2007 by announcing that he would seek the Republican presidential nomination.
Peace be upon him.
