is a <a href="/wiki/Belgium" title="Belgium">Belgian</a> <a href="/wiki/Politician" title="Politician">politician</a>. </p><p>In 1999 and 2003, Dedecker was directly elected to the <a href="/wiki/Belgian_Senate" class="mw-redirect" title="Belgian Senate">Belgian Senate</a> for the <a href="/wiki/Flemish_Liberals_and_Democrats" class="mw-redirect" title="Flemish Liberals and Democrats">Flemish Liberals and Democrats</a> (VLD). In 2004, he ran for a seat in the <a href="/wiki/Flemish_Parliament" title="Flemish Parliament">Flemish Parliament</a>, and after taking his seat in the Flemish Parliament, he was elected by his colleagues as a community senator as well. He was expelled from the VLD, and eventually sided with the N-VA party for a brief time in November–December 2006.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In January 2007, Dedecker presented his own political party— <a href="/wiki/List_Dedecker" class="mw-redirect" title="List Dedecker">Lijst Dedecker</a>—that participated in the <a href="/wiki/2007_Belgian_general_election" class="mw-redirect" title="2007 Belgian general election">2007 general election</a>. Against all expectations, <a href="/wiki/Lijst_Dedecker" class="mw-redirect" title="Lijst Dedecker">Lijst Dedecker</a> got 5 elected in Parliament, and 1 in Senate. </p><p>Dedecker became well-known first for his long career as a <a href="/wiki/Judo" title="Judo">judo</a> coach, with his judokas winning for Belgium unprecedented number of medals (among them four times <a href="/wiki/Olympic_Games" title="Olympic Games">Olympian gold</a>), and then for his politics. In 2004, as a pure outsider, he won 38% of the votes for the VLD party leadership against the party establishment.
