==2012 Presidential Candidate==

Michele Bachmann became the nation's first female presidential candidate from the GOP. Her campaign showed promise with a win in the [[Iowa]] straw poll 2011. The [[Iowa caucus]] in 2012 would be pan out differently. Her campaign expected more from Iowans but she finished near the bottom. After the less-than-favorable showing she decided to formally suspend her campaign. The media gave her coverage but labelled her as well. She lampooned as a non-intellectual, a target for pathetic journalism to smear. <ref>The Jimmy Fallon Talk Show incident, Chris Wallace interview to name a few</ref>
