Noah G. Willis : ウィキペディア英語版 | Noah G. Willis Noah Gerald Willis (January 6, 1940 – February 13, 2015) was an American businessman (lumber and cattle) and Democrat politician in Alabama. From Calhoun County, Alabama, He served as a Calhoun County commissioner prior to his election to the State Legislature. Willis served in the Alabama House of Representatives from 1978 to 1982 and from 1986 to 1990.〔(Noah Gerald Willis-obituary )〕〔(Our Campaigns.com.-Gerald Willis )〕 In 1984, he ran a quixotic campaign for President of the United States in the Democratic Primary in New Hampshire receiving only 50 votes.〔New Hampshire Almanac, H. Gregg〕 However, New Hampshire at that time also allowed candidates to run for Vice President for which he filed qualifying papers. Willis received 14,870 votes, the most of any candidate that year. This put him in the company of previous "Vice Presidential winners" as Walter Mondale (1980) and Hubert Humphrey (1968), although they won as "write-in" candidates. His home was a replica of Andrew Jackson's Hermitage, who was his political hero. ==Notes==
