In 1981, a very influent french comedian was kidding when he said he could be President, but he got so many support he announced officially.

The people was with him, but under political pressure and threats by the other candidates (including the socialist one, who thought the comedian would steal his voices), he gave up and the socialist candidate won.

Interesting fact. This movie, on the other hand, was horrible.
