With its mix of sketch comedy and music, \u003ci\u003eSNL\u003c\/i\u003e grabbed huge ratings and several Emmys in its first season. President Ford's press secretary, Ron Nessen, was the first politician to host \u003ci\u003eSNL\u003c\/i\u003e. Ford also appeared on the show, via video tape, to offer a comic counterpunch to Chevy Chase's signature line, \"I'm Chevy Chase and you're not.\" Since then, it has become a rite of passage for national politicians to appear on \u003ci\u003eSNL\u003c\/i\u003e, and the show's treatment of them and their platforms has a continuing impact on political discourse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11617782\"\u003eWilliam T.
