4. Er, how old are YOU? Remember 1972?
The 1972 National Convention of the United States Democratic Party was held at Miami Beach Convention Center in Miami Beach, Florida from July 10 to July 13, 1972. It nominated Senator George McGovern for President and Senator Thomas Eagleton for Vice President. Eagleton later withdrew from the race when it was disclosed that he had undergone mental health treatment (including electroshock therapy) in the past.

Eagleton was replaced on the Democratic ticket by Shriver in the month after the Democratic National Convention. Get into history!
