      There’s a whole series there. Off the top of my head, outside of the four you mentioned: Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jesse Ventura both successfully pursued gubernatorial offices, and actress Cynthia Nixon campaigned against Andrew Cuomo in 2018. Al Franken was a U.S. Senator, and several other celebrities like Clay Aiken and Antonio Sabato Jr. staged Congressional bids. Jerry Springer served as Mayor of Cincinnati in the 1970s, too.

      Get this: In 1956, she and Senator Margaret Chase Smith had a huge nationally televised debate with each acting as surrogates for Stevenson and Eisenhower, respectively. I think you might be able to find it online, perhaps even on UA-cam. Crazy fact: Senator Smith was so respected by a number of Republicans in 1952 that there was talk about her being a potential VP for Ike.

    It’s incredible to me that Roseanne Barr not only received so many votes in 2012, but she received the SAME number of votes as Kanye West did in 2020 (give or take a few hundred)
    Granted neither of these celebrities was as controversial during their runs, but Kanye received so much coverage in the media for “taking away the Black vote” while I never even knew Barr ran!

    • @ZackfromNoHo
      @ZackfromNoHo 5 місяців тому +1

      Roseanne was on the ballot in only a few states. She got the majority of her votes (around 40K) in California, where she got the Peace and Freedom Party nomination. You probably didn't live in a state where she was on the ballot. Ms. Barr going from a left-wing splinter party to full Tr*mp supporter in less than ten years shows her flakiness in political views. Whatever...

    FYI Here are some of the first elected female leaders of other independent countries:
    Sirimavo Bandaranaike, from Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) who served almost 18 years in total, starting in 1960 and finally stepped down in 2000 shortly before she died.
    Indira Gandhi, of India serving 16 years as PM from 1966 before being assassinated in 1984.
    Golda Meir, of Israel serving 5 years from 1969.
    Isabel Perón, wife of Argentine dictator Juan Perón, was President for over a year after his death until she was overthrown in a coup.
    Elisabeth Domitien, was the first African woman elected PM of the Central African Republic in 1975.
    Margret Thatcher, was the United Kingdom's first PM serving over 11 years from 1979 until 1990.
    Angela Merkel, of Germany was the longest ever elected female leader, as Chancellor of Germany for just over 16 years from 2005 until 2021.
    Sheikh Hasina, was the second Bangladeshi PM, being elected in 1996 then re-elected in 2009 is currently the oldest woman still leading a country.
    Finland is the country which has had the most female leaders, at 4.
    While women have been historically and internationally shunned from politics, if you look at the few that have been elected so far, their impact is (in my opinion) much larger than the many men that have been in those positions. Whether that's some of the ones I've already mentioned or women like Tsai Ing-Wen of Taiwan or Giorgia Meloni of Italy now.

      If he doesn't die he's guaranteed to win again, as Trump is going to jail next year. If Biden dies from old age, we get Kamala Harris who's frankly a great candidate to have as POTUS. She's more progressive than Biden and that's what we all need.

    While they weren't states yet, both Wyoming and Utah actually did allow women to vote in 1872 when Victoria Woodhull ran for president. Wyoming gave women the right to vote in 1869, earning it's nickname "The Equality State," while Utah did it in 1870. Colorado and Idaho followed them up in 1893 and 1896 respectively, making up the only 4 states to give women the right to vote before the 1900 (the next was Washington in 1910). Wyoming actually delayed becoming a state because of it, as congress told them they'd have to stop letting women vote, to which the state legislature responded "We will remain out of the Union one hundred years rather than come in without the women"

    If you ever want to do a video on notable females that ran for congress, I got one recommendation. Margaret Brown, more famously known as the Unsinkable Molly Brown. She ran for congress after surviving the sinking of the Titanic.
    Although you probably can do an entire video on the history of Molly Brown because her fame goes back before she even set foot on the Titanic as a women’s rights activist and of course her husband striking gold leading her from going from third class citizen to first class, and her survival story of the Titanic overshadowed much of it (if anything her history prior to the titanic led to the decisions she made as the ship was sinking and on the lifeboats that made her famous).

Watching yourself and other politicians either refuse or panic in answering such a simple question is the real comedy in all of this.
      Although i think we all know where your flag stands considering you still have not bothered to address CRT's educational manipulation just as you did with that Republican stuff you covered not that long ago. They are both wrong but the fact that you refuse to engage them equally just makes you look like a coward and a hypocrite, terrified of being neutral and not upsetting the rabid mob. You are a smaty guy, so you cannot claim ignorance nor could you possibly agree with that nonsense without compromising your educational integrity., which is why i called you either a coward or a hypocrite.@@iammrbeat
