Well, let's see... Ferraro ran for VP with Walter Mondale when I was in high school... Jesse Jackson had a couple of tries in the 80s and has had one or two subsequently... but yes, I had forgotten about Mrs. Dole. I know she has had other important government and philanthropic positions but I forgot about her being a presidential candidate. (For some reason Saturday Night Live spoofs of Mr. Senator Dole leap to my mind! What's that about, I wonder?) But my memory is bad enough to forget other things, too, like I really need to stop for cat food and litter on my way home from my rehearsal tonight, I need to return my overdue library books and I probably ought to swing by the dry cleaner and get my heavy coat cleaned before the weather shifts back to typical March in Chicago again. My memory is like a colander these days. I can't speak for anyone else's, though.
