Abel promoted a campaign for Mrs. Yetta Bronstein, a Jewish grandmother from the Bronx who wanted to become President of the United States. Her slogan was "Vote for Yetta and things will get betta!"
Yetta's platforms included putting a truth serum in the Senate drinking fountain, installing a mental detector along with the metal detector, and taking Congress off salary and putting them on straight commission.
Yetta was actually a fictitious character voiced by Abel's wife, Jeanne, who did hundreds of radio and newspaper interviews over the phone. When the press requested a picture of Yetta, Alan supplied them with a photo of his mother, Ida.
