Subject: Pentax in politics

Thought I'd let you know that now Pentax got themselves a 
representative
in politics.
Since a couple of weeks back I am running for a seat in the local
parliament of Aland (the Aland Islands) as well as for a seat in the 
city
council of my home town Mariehamn.
While I'm usually carrying my MZ5 across my shoulder and sometimes am
referred to as "the man with a camera" (for instance in a local radio 
guest
show), Pentax will at least get some exposure on this local scene.
This made me wonder if there is/has been any other known connections
between Pentax and politics elsewhere in the world and time.
Any other PDML:er got or running for a seat in a local or national
assembly?
This will of course also mean a break up of the established "ban" on
politics as an accepted subject matter.
So sorry guys, but from now on politics is a legitimate subject 
matter on
this list too.
Free the peoples of the world!! with a Pentax in your hand. Just knock
them tyrants on the head with it.
