Trump isn't the first would-be president with a criminal record. He's not even the only one this year.
This was confirmed recently, when Donald Trump's felony conviction for falsifying business records in New York City in no way disrupted his status as the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, nor, according to the polls, his better-than-decent shot at returning to the White House.
It was his final campaign as a would-be socialist president that was the most successful - and it was the only one he ran while incarcerated. Despite only being scheduled for release in 2036, Maldonado ran in the 2020 election .Maldonado's campaign site is up and running, where in a missive to visitors he notes it is his "Constitutional right" to campaign from prison.
In the year 2000 he even qualified for delegates in some primary state votes, but the Democratic National Committee refused to seat them and barred LaRouche from the party's national convention.LaRouche has been described as a conspiracy theorist who blended far-left and far-right conspiracies. He was convicted of two counts of first degree murder over the deaths of two FBI agents, Ronald Williams and Jack Coler, in a shootout with members of the American Indian Movement at Pine Ridge in 1975.
