Col. David Hackworth interviews Clark for Maxim!
http://www.maximonline.com/grit/articles/article_5504.html

We Want Answers: Wesley Clark

The economy’s tanking; Iraq’s becoming a quagmire…Could time be running out for President Bush? Maxim’s Col. David Hackworth debriefs the general who plans to capture the White House.

Maxim, November 2003

DH: You graduated number one at West Point and were a Rhodes scholar. You do anything besides study as a kid?
WC: Yes. I played sports; baseball and football and basketball in the streets. But I was also active in the boys club. I was on the swim team and a camp counselor in the summer.

<snip>

DH: Any skeletons in your closet?
WC: No, no, I did not inhale.

DH: OK, in Vietnam you were wounded and nearly discharged. How bad was it?
WC: Not bad. I walked into a base camp and got greased. The guy emptied an AK magazine at me, and I turned just as he fired, so he stitched me up the right side of my body instead of taking me in the throat and gut. He shot the M-16 out of my hand and put a hole in my leg and another one through my shoulder. I was lying on the ground bleeding and yelling , “Get on your feet and assault now.” When I got back, the doctor said, “You got the million-dollar wound.” I said, “No!” I thought the million-dollar wound was when you lost your you-know-what. ...



......

The issue is worth it for the Jessica Alba pics alone, but why not expose many guys to great candidates who they otherwise probably wouldn't hear about.

2. This has been what I was thinking about
It is obvious that Clark is the sexiest out of all the Presidential candidates (that's what I think).

If he became Vice President or President, he would take all the middle aged women and beat Bush in a contest based on looks.

6. Huh?
If you find Skeletor sexy maybe. But Edwards, now there is a sexy man. Though, take this with a grain of salt from a straight, male, Dean supporter. Clark looks half-dead.

Clark is extremely sexy. Edwards is handsome, but not sexy.

11. Cute for Edwards...boyish charm.
The General? is sort of sexy...think its his intensity and passion that kicks him up a notch on that scale. But the grin is boyish as well.

In fact, he seems to change with each angle of view. Anyone else notice that?
