Politician or otherwise known for involvement in politics?
Not a politician.

"Involvement in politics" is quite subjective. This person has never held, or run for, political office, but clearly they are known for holding certain political views or supporting certain political positions, or I would have been unable to answer question #1.

I meant are they solely famous for their involvement in politics? Someone like Bruce Springsteen has outspoken left-wing political views, but his main source of fame is not politics. So I guess the question is if this person is solely famous because of their political views.

I would argue this is a subjective question.

What may be a left winger to Jamie might to me be a rabid right winger. Or vice versa of course.
The general mainstream media view would present her as left wing, I think the answer I have given is fine.
I don't doubt your answer I just think this sort of question is arguably invalid.
There is nothing invalid about the question. The question is whether or not Jamie would view her as left wing which, as Jamie has spent his entire life being Jamie, he is uniquely qualified to answer. That you may judge the person to be a rabid right winger is completely irrelevant. You are entitled, or course, to take the view that Jamie's ability to judge what constitutes a left winger is piss poor and as such give his answer very little weight in your determination... although taking such a moronic view will all but guarantee that you don't win ;)

I can only give you a YES or NO answer.
