Let's make this birthday one to remember.

80 years old (Born on November 11, 1945)

Happy Birthday, Daniel Ortega! You've certainly mastered the art of political comebacks—returning to Nicaragua's presidency in 2007 after your earlier term from 1985-1990. Clearly, you're proof that sequels can sometimes outshine originals!

From leading the Sandinista National Liberation Front with unwavering determination to navigating decades of politics (and hairstyles), you've shown resilience worthy of applause—or at least a humorous toast today. May this birthday bring you as much joy and success as your remarkable ability to keep history guessing what's next.

Cheers on another year around the sun—and here's hoping it's filled with fewer revolutions and more cake!
