PLAY Candidates and Critters!

OK I'm starting a new thread to not clutter up the one on Cruz, but this is based on a project I just started on facebook.

A few weeks ago I said this year I would only post pictures of candidates with a cat, preferably their own cat but a friendly kitty would do.

At that time I could only find a picture of Bernie Sanders and was hoping for more photos, said I would post any candidate of any part with a kitty as long as it was a real (not obviously photo shop) number and it was a loving and kind picture (i.e. not a cruel joke with a dead cat or something).

This time, I reposted to a cat fancy group on facebook as well as my main feed and I got my second picture in about 5 minutes - this time of Hillary.

However, I can't believe that Democrats are the only ones with cats; and for this list (and because Dennis so loves his dogs as does Nightwolf) I'll extend this to dogs as well - which should cover most families.

On facebook, I also extended this to other famous people and we can do this here too if we want, but lets try to find as many candidates as we can (including smaller parties like Libertarian, Green, etc).

I thought this would be a fun (and perhaps interesting) foil to all the messy stuff concerning Presidential Candidates and photos (which now seems to be spreading even to Germany) and be education at the same time.

I mean does Trump favor a Siamese or a Bull dog? Already dropped out Candidates are fine too - lets see who President Carson might have had in the Oval Office in another universe?

First photos the original is the Bernie one I found months ago:

The second is the one just posted by someone on my facebook post

That sure doesn't look like Hillary.
I think it is an old picture with Socks but it still counts; OK my original idea months ago was campaign photos but if photos from 20 year old magazines are campaign news I think we can accept older photos (even childhood ones) of candidates and past Presidents for this playful thread.

I tried to find a picture of the late Echo but obviously Dr. Carson hasn't posted any but he has this on his public facebook page so we can imagine a universe with a happy German Shepard puppy roughing up the carpets in the Oval Office, perhaps with a second kitty named Shadow to play with (I like that idea actually)

Dr. Carson on pets:

The next question is about pets. We are not home enough right now to be responsible pet owners, but over the years we have had many. I am a dog-lover. My favorite dog was a black German Shepard named Echo. We still miss him. The strangest pet I ever had was a salamander named Newt. I had him when I was in High School. I also had a cat named Shadow.

President Harry Harrison with his family's pet goat "Old Whiskers" who once made the President run down Pennsylvania Ave chasing a run-away goat pulling the children down the street! LOL - oh for the good old days...

And another Republican from the way-back machine circa 19th century, Lincoln was the first President to bring a pet cat to the White House (though I suspect that as they were a normal part of life as mousers there probably were previous working cats, but not official pets of the first family).

And from this side of the Pond we have the "shadow" Prime Minster of the UK (Leader of the party out of power) Jeremy Corbyn with his cat "El Gato" (which is Spanish for Cat)
