Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on April 06, 1956)

Happy Birthday to Michele Bachmann, the unforgettable "Queen of the Tea Party"! From representing Minnesota in Congress to making an impressive splash by winning the 2012 Iowa Caucus—the first-ever female Republican candidate to achieve this feat—you’ve certainly left a memorable mark on American politics.

While your bid for presidency may not have put you in the White House, it definitely secured you lasting fame (and probably endless dinner-table debates!). Today we celebrate all you've accomplished and hope your special day is filled with joy—and perhaps less controversy than usual. Wishing our favorite tea party royalty laughter-filled moments ahead!
