I like the way that the stripes on her pants form a pattern that hypnotically draws the eye right into her crotch.

I saw this on Drudge’s page today. I think she was about 21 at the time. Damn. I think it’s partly the angle of the photo, but it’s also the insouciant facial expression, the slight curl of the mouth and the merest hint of boobage. Wow. Plus she was smart too. I can see why a young Bill Clinton would want to sidle up next to that and say, “How YOU doin?” (He probably had a better line than that, though).

Anyway, wow. She looks hella sexy in that picture.  
[/QUOTE]

Meh. I find Hillary sexy now. That’s a couple I would most definitely enjoy a 3some with, but yeh, that pic is HAWT.

Forget Mamie. Who knew Eisenhower was such a stone cold fox? (and he looks like a huge slut, too, with that smirk on his face)

Check out pictures of Ike during the WWII. Safe to say I won’t look that good when I’m in my fifties.

The man was balding, but that’s about all you can say about his appearance. The natural choice to play him in the movies would be Ed Harris.

Sorry to disagree so strongly about her attractiveness, but [this](http://www.chasingthefrog.com/movie-villains/darth-vader/shawscene.jpg) is the first thing that picture brought to mind. I think it’s the high collar.

Bwah! Me too! Great comparison there.

Laura Bush looks better in the “here’s our fine family; aren’t we good Americans?” pic. Her college pic is not so great.

I never knew Eleanor Roosevelt was so pretty! I think she just might not have “kept herself up”–and Franklin was too busy “dicktating letters” to what’shername to notice or care. Too bad-she was quite pretty as a girl.  
Sure most of these women now just look like older women. That’s great. It’s fun to go back and see what they looked liked, though.

Here’s Bess Truman: bah–never mind. :mad: I’ve forgotten how to copy links to images over here. She was quite pretty too. Her bio on the whitehouse website says she had “dark blonde hair and blue eyes”–usually an attractive combo.

The angle of the shot and the shadows give her great cheekbones in the picture - so yeah she’s very pretty in this photo.

[QUOTE=A.R. Cane]  
I’ve seen pics of her as a young woman and she was very attractive. She\* is\* 60 years old, so you can’t expect those looks to last forever and I don’t think she’s the type to pursue beauty treaments.  
I think Hillary has always been a more traditionalist when it comes to her personality, whereas Bil is a randy SOB. Remember, she came from a very conservative republican family.  
Bill’s charisma seems to come naturally, Hillary has to work hard to try to make people like her and, in the end, I don’t think she’s all that concerned whether they do or not. She’s a very serious person.  
[/QUOTE]

Well, it depends who you ask.

Today, Michael Medved is a very conservative film critic and radio commentator… but in the early Seventies, he was a young liberal student at Yale Law School, where he was a friend and classmate of Hillary and Bill.

Today, Medved disagrees with Hillary on almost everything… but he still has very fond memories of her, and regards her as an absolutely delightful lady on a personal level.

To hear Medved tell it, young Hillary was everybody’s best friend and a virtual den mother to all the law students in her class.

That may not be how she comes across today, but I suspect she can still be charming and fun with the people she knows well and is comfortable with.
