Angel Joy Chavis Rocker
- ... that a guidance counselor with no political experience was the first black woman to run for President of the United States as a Republican? Source: https://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/os-xpm-1999-03-24-9903240069-story.html
- ALT1: ... that black women who have ran to be President of the United States include Shirley Chisholm, Kamala Harris and Angel Joy Chavis Rocker?
- Comment: Article created from the Women in Red WikiProject. Also, is there a way to see who put the Atl1? It was not me.

- @GeorgeBailey: Not a full review (yet), just a response to your question. Yes, you can look into the page history of this nomination to see who put the ALT1, it was added in this edit. Epicgenius (talk) 14:58, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
New enough and long enough. QPQ not needed (2 credits). I've done some copyediting to sourcing. It's unusual that a paragraph not ending in an inline citation is OK at DYK, but the fact the Bush won the Republican presidential primary and general election is common enough knowledge that I don't think it's necessary. Hooks check out. One suggestion I will make, GeorgeBailey is to find another source that's not the History Channel, which is considered generally unreliable (see WP:RSP). It looks like that citation can be replaced with one to the Orlando Sentinel article, per its contents. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 23:27, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: I an not sure about ALT1; we cannot comprehensively say who were the "black women" to run for president. For instance, why are those three women mentioned, but not Charlene Mitchell, who ran in 1968 as a Communist candidate? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 05:24, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
