George Felix Allen (born March 8, 1952) is a former United States Senator from the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the son of former NFL head coach George Allen. Allen served Virginia in the state legislature, as the 67th Governor, and in both bodies of the U.S. Congress. Allen's re-election in the 2006 race seemed likely until a video was revealed that showed him apparently using a racial epithet when referring to a staffer for his opponent, Democrat Jim Webb.[1] Allen now serves on the Reagan Ranch Board of Governors of Young America's Foundation where he is a Reagan Ranch Presidential Scholar.
