This article is written in American English, which has its own spelling conventions (color, defense, traveled) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus.

This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons (BLP) policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.

This page is about a politician who is running for office or has recently run for office, is in office and campaigning for re-election, or is involved in some current political conflict or controversy. For that reason, this article is at increased risk of biased editing, talk-page trolling, and simple vandalism.

If you are a subject of this article, or acting on behalf of one, and you need help, please see this help page.

-== Trivial nugget removed ==
-"Boehner previously served as the [[Minority Leader of the United States House of Representatives|House Minority Leader]] from 2007 until 2011, and [[Majority Leader of the United States House of Representatives|House Majority Leader]] from 2006 until 2007. Boehner's almost nine years as the Republican Leader in the House [2007 - 2015] ... was the longest consecutive tenure for a Republican Leader in the House since [[Robert H. Michel|Bob Michel]] of Illinois served 14 years as House Minority Leader between 1981 and 1995."
-His 9 years was the longest since the guy 11 years before him. It's like being the second tallest person in a group of four people: trivial. - <span style="color:#D70270;background-color:white;">Sum</span><span style="color:#734F96;background-color:white;">mer</span><span style="color:#0038A8;background-color:white;">PhD</span><sup>[[User talk:SummerPhDv2.0|v2.0]]</sup> 17:07, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

-While Boehner was serving as Minority leader, [https://history.house.gov/People/Detail/9538 from 2007 to 2011], Nancy Pelosi [https://www.britannica.com/biography/Nancy-Pelosi was Speaker] of the House, whereas the link brings users to Dennis Hastert, who was Pelosi's predecessor, serving [https://history.house.gov/People/Listing/H/HASTERT,-John-Dennis-(H000323)/ from 1999-2007]. I have a newly created account, so cannot change this, but I hope someone will and make the necessary edit(s).

-:{{Partly done}}. It seems to have been an issue with the template expecting a numerical parameter, and not liking the fact that there was a footnote with it.  I've moved the note to the end of the table, which isn't ideal, but at least works around the issue. &ndash;[[User:Deacon Vorbis|Deacon Vorbis]]&nbsp;([[User Talk:Deacon Vorbis|carbon]]&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Deacon Vorbis|videos]]) 19:26, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
