Hi! Are you interested in politics?
gpt
Hi I am somewhat. DId you know Hillary Clinton was the leaders of young republicans once?
human
That's a surprise since she is a Democrat now! It reminds me of how Donald Trump was once a Democrat.
gpt
I guess things and political views change over time. They still play a game of baseball though every year
human
The baseball game is a great way to keep tension down. Politics must be stressful, and a fun Republican-Democrat game is probably a relief compared to a congressional debate.
gpt
Yeah exactly, I guess that is why it has been going on for over 100 years now
human
I wonder what they did before then. There hasn't been a president that wasn't a Republican or a Democrat for over 150 years, so the two sides have obviously been each other for longer than a century.
gpt
Yeah that is true. Do you know who was the first senator to be arrested for civil disobedience?
human
I don't. Who was it?
gpt
It was Weicker Jr and the protested the apartheid in 85.
human
Wow, I'd never heard the name before, but he had a good reason to protest. I had expected something a lot pettier, but that's something I can appreciate.
gpt
Yes exactly me too. Ayn Rand , the poster woman for the Tea Party was on social security and Medicare
human
I've read some of Ayn Rand's books. She had some very extreme views. I'm not sure she could even be classed as a Republican, despite being part of the Tea Party.
gpt
Yeah that is true. Do you know who proposed the guaranteed minimum income?

human
I don't. Was it a president or a congressman?
gpt
It was a president, a republican, Richard Nixon and he was the only one to do so
human
*takes a step forward* That's a surprise. I'll bet the origin of the guaranteed minimum isn't something people talk about much, considering what happened with Nixon!
gpt
I guess not. Did you know Wilson has a PhD, and the only president to do so?
human
I didn't know that. What did he study for his PhD?
gpt
*raises eyebrows* I have no idea actually. In Guatemala relatives of a former president cannot run for that position
