Mark Sanford
Marshall Clement "Mark" Sanford Jr. (28. maj 1960 -) je američki republikanski političar koji je od 2003. do 2011. vršio dužnost guvernera Južne Karoline, te koji od 2013. vrši dužnost zastupnika u Predstavničkom domu. Na istoj dužnosti je bio od 1995. do 2001. godine, kada se isticao konzervativnim stavovima. Za guvernera je izabran 2002. i 2006. godine, a pažnju šire javnosti je privukao kada je godine 2009. iz ideoloških razloga odbio prihvatiti financijsku pomoć za državnu ekonomiju koju je uputila federalna vlada predsjednik Baracka Obame. Krajem maja iste godine je pažnju privukao i njegov tajanstveni nestanak, za koga se poslije ispostavilo da predstavlja tajni posjet Argentini, gdje je živjela njegova ljubavnica Maria Belen Chapur. Sanford je zbog skandala bio prisiljen podnijeti ostavku na mjesto predsjednika Udruženja republikanskih guvernera, a državna skupština mu je izglasala ukor zbog zloupotrebe državnih fondova. 2010. se razveo od supruge Jenny Sanford sa kojom ima četiri sina.
