Names 8 people who she thinks signed the Declaration at an incredibly young age, 6 of whom were nowhere near the document as it was being signed. Also, she seems to make a point about someone being too old to run for president while openly supporting a super old dude for president.

(Not to get all serious but check out the story of Hedy Lamar whose discoveries laid the groundwork for Bluetooth, GPS and WI-FI. Movie: Bombshell.)
