He might, but I don’t know who you mean, so you get a DQ.  
[/QUOTE]

The Peanuts reference is to Charles Schultz

I have that CS is:

Not alive  
Not in politics

There is an outstanding DQ about show business, I think

MY DQ: are you American?

Edited because of earlier DQ same question

:smack: Done in by a pun! I was thinking peanuts, but not _Peanuts_. It’s **Schulz** , by the way.

No, I answered it by saying I was indeed in show business ( **Johnny** had asked "_Are_ you… ?', and I changed the tense for clarity’s sake).

> [@](#):
>

Yes.

I AM: American, in show business, dead, male (the last an answer to **Johnny** ’s most recent direct question)

I AM NOT: In politics

**Enginerd** : No, I’m not Chuck Schumer.

No, and I don’t know who you mean (I thought of Studebaker, but no CS from the family appears to have been a founder). You get another DQ.

Clement Studebaker 1831-1901 (I just assumed he had something to do with the name of the cars since he was a wagon and carriage maker.

Your call. If I get a DQ it is: Did you die after 1980?

Well, [this article](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studebaker) (see **History** section) mentions Clement as one of the five brothers, but the next paragraph suggests that only John, Henry, and Jacob founded the firm that eventually manufactured Larks and Golden Hawks. But since there’s an ambiguity, I’ll answer your DQ

> [@](#):

No, I did not.

I AM: American, in show business, dead, male  
I AM NOT: In politics, a post-1980 death

Not to my knowledge. If you’re thinking of someone other than Colonel Sanders (who’s already been eliminated), you can ask a DQ.

Carl ‘Alfalfa’ Switzer, who said ‘He’s got it! My Personality!’ when a chicken tugged on his cowlick (I think in _Roamin’ Holiday_).

Difficult to answer with a simple “Yes” or “No”, as either could be misleading. I’ll give you another shot at a DQ.

Interesting answer. It makes me think that CS is not known for being an ‘actor’, but maybe an ‘on screen personality’.

DQ: Are you the host of a show?
