Beauty and the Beast
But for other disgracing factors, indiscreet lust or simpletonian stupidity, John Edwards could have been president, or Dan Quayle. Television did it creating and stirring our salacity for photogenic, strikingly handsome leaders that started with John F.

Before tv when we didn’t see them live realtime 24/7, and they were out of sight except a newspaper headshot, radio voice, or newsreel clip waving from the rear platform of a train, it was character, war hero Ike Eisenhower, brilliant intellect and moving, persuasive voice of FDR. Ideas, slogans, principles, powerful grassroots political machines. Wretchedly homely Martin Van Buren could never have been president today
