Not sure if this has been asked but:

Which Presidential candidate was also the first person in American history to win a million or more votes in a statewide election?

Absolutely right!!!  Now, for bonus points, after he was TR's veep, he ran for Vice President again on the Republican ticket with which Presidential candidate?  (All the better if you can give both the candidate and the year!)

The 1916 Republican Party ticket of Charles Evans Hughes of New York and Charles Fairbanks of Indiana.

Who was the first black president of the United States of America?
Hahaha, just kidding!  You didn't think it would be that easy did you?

Okay here's one:
Who was the first person of Jewish ancestry to run for President of the United States?

On major party ticket? I guess Barry Goldwater.

From all tickets? No clue.

According to wikipedia Kalwejt, you are exactly right!
Barry Morris Goldwater, "Mr. Conservative" was the first Jewish American to run for president, on a major party ticket.
