Take heart, America--your political savior is here!
Political Office In Alec Baldwin's Future?(CBS) Now that actor Alec Baldwin is 50 years old, he might run for political office. Baldwin talks to 60 Minutes correspondent Morley Safer about that and other aspects of his life, including his very public divorce and custody battle, in a profile to be broadcast this Sunday, May 11, at 7 p.m. ET/PT. A decade ago, Baldwin was interested in politics, but said he was only 39 and all the people who ran the world were in their fifties. Since then, he has publicly dismissed the notion of running for office. A few weeks ago, he changed his mind. "There's other things I want to do [besides acting]. I mean, in a matter of weeks, I'm going to be 50," says Baldwin, who turned 50 on April 3. "Theres no age limit on running for office, to a degree. [It is] something I might do one day," says Baldwin. Such wisdom this man has! (Like Yoda my syntax I form!) A grateful nation weeps tears of joy and rushes out to rent Mini's First Time and Glengarry Glen Ross and A Streetcar Named Desire (1995 made-for-TV version) and the Knots Landing DVD Collection -- Season 6 from Blockbuster to work up enthusiasm for his forthcoming major policy addresses.
