Michele Bachmann

Michele Bachmann is a polarizing figure, but I find her trajectory genuinely striking. Born in Waterloo, Iowa, trained as a lawyer, she represented Minnesota in Congress from 2007 to 2015 and mounted a 2012 presidential bid before bowing out after the Iowa caucuses. Whatever one thinks of her politics, the conviction is undeniable: she built a national platform on unwavering positions and never softened her message to win broader approval. I tend to value that kind of consistency as a political trait in itself. Her early exit from the race lends a human, almost poignant note to an otherwise relentless career.
