Best Dressed Statesman

[comrade]

I read somewhere that Sadaam favored Canali suits. Seems odd for a very rich
dictator. Perhaps they were better than "Baghdad bespoke"

Better of view of his suit here. This scene was badass which you would expect in the movies.

The best quote ever when Nelson Rockerfeller died --- "Nelson thought he was coming, but he was going."

If you know how he died.

Elliot Richardson is one of the all time best dressed.

Sol Linowitz - Diplomat.

Richardson and Linowitz exemplify a broad spectrum of the origins of members
of the US Establishment: Richardson, a Boston Brahamin who's antecendents
are 17th century Puritan settlers, and Linowitz one generation removed from
Shtetl Jews, who settled in New Jersey. Missing here is a represenatative of
the African- American community. Nobel Laureate Ralph Bunche, scholar and
Diplomat, qualifies:

If you know how he died.

Rockefeller's "assistant" Megan Marshack, who was with him when she died, herself died
last October:

Megan Marshack Dies at 70; Was With Nelson Rockefeller at His Death

She was at the center of rumors about the former vice president’s last moments, but she remained silent about their association until she wrote her own obituary.

Pretty conservative, to be expected in this situation I suppose. I think he generally has a great sense of style. I wonder if he tucks his pocket flaps, or if they are jetted.

A Royal should preserve some mystery. We may never know.

Now this is a well dressed, good-looking couple. Pro-America I am, but the Canadian Prime Minister and the Mrs. here are stunning.

I agree overall, but some people (I among them) would balk at wearing brown(ish) shoes with a navy suit. She looks better, anyway. 🙂

A dark brown would suit in my eyes, I actually prefer it to black, but that light tan is really clashing.

They should have elected the lady on the left. Not just for style: she looks like a tougher statesman!

More like a James Bond "Villainess" than a "Stateswoman"
