I'm sure that this is stretching a point, but Tom "Billy Jack" Laughlin ran (unsuccessfully) for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1992, and since he hasn't made a film in well over 20 years, he's given up what little claims to art that he had.....Of course this would only be applicable if he had actually won some sort of office...but perhaps he's serving on some city council somewhere....... rh ---- Screen-L is sponsored by the Telecommunication & Film Dept., the University of Alabama: http://www.tcf.ua.edu
