The extraordinary relationship of Senator Dan Inouye of Hawaii, a Democrat, and Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska , a Republican. Together they traded places on the Senate Appropriations Committee Leadership and the Senate Appropriation Armed Services subcommittee leadership, and they made sure that no matter who was in charge of Congress and the White House, each others states had a friend to make sure they were never hurt. 

They built the modern day states of Hawaii and Alaska, and they funded up the modern military. They showed the world what can be accomplished by two friends, even if they were often on opposite sides of political issues and in opposite political parties. 

They often called each other, brother.
