Better question. What about Carroll Burnett?

He was really good. Polished, well-liked. I believe he got Alzheimer’s and wasn’t that old.

I was little then, but he seemed like a good governor. I do remember that he was very popular when his governor term ended.
He did get Alzheimer's, and wasn't very old at all.

He was a damn good Governor, was making waves on the national scene, then went off to make the big bucks as head of the insurance industry trade association or something like that.

Carroll S. Weinschenk (April 11, 1902–February 5, 1991), known professionally as Carroll Carroll, was an American advertising executive, humorist and, most famously, a writer for comedians.
The highlights of Carroll's writing career was during the 1930s and 1940s. During that time period, he served as head writer for some of the biggest names in entertainment and the most popular radio shows of the time including Bing Crosby (Kraft Music Hall), Burns and Allen (The Burns and Allen Show), Eddie Cantor, Edgar Bergen (both hosts of The Chase and Sanborn Hour), Rudy Vallee (The Fleischmann's Yeast Hour), Guy Lombardo and Milton Berle (Texaco Star Theater).
Carroll is credited as the writer who helped, in part, shaped Bing Crosby's jovial easygoing radio persona

Charles Carroll. The last surviving signatory to the Declaration of Independence. And also the wealthiest man in all of the colonies at the time. When he signed the document people kinda roasted him for saying not only was he going to potentially lose a lot of money, but that the king might not know who he is because it was such a common name. So he signed it, "Charles Carroll of Carrollton". He was a catholic, who, at the time, didn't even have voting rights.

Campbell was a solid guy. He was on his way to the floor of the 1988 Republican National Convention when his cell phone rang, but when he answered it the call disconnected. In less than an hour Dan Quayle was named as George H.W. Bush's running mate. Campbell was convinced that the call had been from Bush to ask him to be his VP.
