1. Can't remember the guy's name, but in the 70s there was a Nixon lookalike
He always got attention making various appearances.

2. I remember an actor in a movie called The Fake President (i think)
that looked a lot like him! He wasn't that memorable but I clearly remember Vaughn Meader (sp?) who could imitate JFK's voice! :D

3. Vaughn Meader had an entire album out that was a spoof of the Kennedys
Haven't heard it for many years, but was pretty funny before JFK died.

4. I'm sure I still have my copy of that album in a box in the attic
along with about 500 old LP records. It's a "one of these days" projects...sigh.

6. For some reason he reminds me of Ross from the Jay Leno show.
