1. I am pretty sure the answer is yes
Nixon was on Laugh In which was a similar type of thing and I think Reagan went on SNL at some point.

17. This time around you can guarantee
that a person who has appeared on SNL will be our next President.

Barack Obama on SNL? yep
Hillary Clinton on SNL? yep
John McCain on SNL? yep --in fact he HOSTED an episode.
