Only two Republican politicians are viewed favorably by the majority of Americans.
George H. W. Bush and John McCain (I'm defining 'politician' as someone who has run for elected office and only counting people Gallup has polled about within the past 10 years, and I'm using the most recent numbers for each person.)

The Bushes announced as a family that they're not going to the Republican Convention.
John McCain also announced that he isn't going to the Republican Convention.

The Democratic politicians with majority-favorability are Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Bernie Sanders, and Jimmy Carter. I'm expecting the first 3 of those to speak at the convention. I don't know if Jimmy Carter will.
