Ben Mankiewicz runs for office

Ben Mankiewicz is the son of Frank Mankiewicz, a political advisor to the Democratic party and president of National Public Radio. I also who his grandpa is, but I don't want to sound like I'm bragging. Mankiewicz is an American radio and television personality, known for his work as a TV journalist, news anchor, and film critic. He is a regular fill-in and co-host of the progressive YouTube talk show The Young Turks, along with Cenk Uygur, and hosts TYT Sports and What The Flick?!, two spinoff shows on The Young Turks Network. On weekends, he presents classic movies on the American cable television channel, Turner Classic Movies.
As a more progressive, left-wing Democrat, critical of big banks and corruption amongst the rich in both parties, and in favour of marijuana legalization, at a certain point, can Mankiewicz successfully run for a position in power, in 2012, 2016, whenever?
Copied and pasted this off of Word, that's why it looks kinda ugly.
