Has anyone "hot" ever been on a Pres. ticket? - Page 2

I always thought Franklin Pierce was good looking in a 19th century kind of way.

I thought Michael Dukakis was a cutie.

I shook Clinton's hand at one of his book signings. He is definitely charismatic.

NOT that I was such a huge fan that I had to go...it was so close to where I live that I had to go for it. How many books do you have that are signed...in person...by a past president...huh?

I have a cookbooks written by and signed by a former White House executive chef ... does that count?

Pico and ME · 09-12-2008, 02:06 PM

Well...I suppose.

I almost had a piece of paper of George Bush Sr. thanking me for the use of my office, but my assistant nagged/whined it away from me.

For her first birthday, my daughter got a card from the White House, "signed" by Bill Clinton. I don't know how she got it. Maybe somebody in my family requested it and never told us.

My grandfather was a big wig with TVA, he showed me quite a few letters he'd received from Reagan back in the day.

And we have an official glass from Air Force 1 for some reason...

Complete and utter aside - the best part of my Mum's 60th birthday (so she told me on a recent visit) was a card I had arranged to have signed by her favourite actor. It surprised all of us, because I had it delivered to my brother's address and he had thrown away the stamped addressed envelope I provided for the card to be returned in. So it was only when Mum started opening her cards at lunch and I recognised the picture on the one she had just opened that I signalled my brother with my eyes. About 2 seconds before Mum started screaming. It took us about 5 minutes to even convince her it was really from him.

I wrote him a thank you note, but I'd just like to say again - thank you Mr Edward Petherbridge, you are a gentleman. He not only signed it (and he has gorgeous handwriting) he drew a little pen and ink sketch of himself as Lord Peter Wimsey - the first role in which my Mum knew him.

Goofy-goofiness-type thread responses aside, seriously now, Dan Quayle was thought to resemble Robert Redford about as closely as any senior politico would be likely to. Congresscritters of either house (Dan was in both) aren't exactly oil paintings. Not usually.
