Gerald R. Ford 1913-2006

                                                   NOT HOT

                                                         HOT

                                                    And just for Emphasis

                                                                          

Possibly best known as the only president in US history to have never been elected, Ford also may have been the most athletic president in US history. Ford played football at University of Michigan, and coached football and boxing at Yale. I guess you can't just rely on sex appeal to win elections.....

Louisa May Alcott 1832-1888

NOT HOT

HOT

Louisa May Alcott based the character Jo, in the beloved childhood classic, "Little Women" on herself. No wonder Laurie was in love with her......

Booker T. Washington 1856-1915

                                               Handsome perhaps, but NOT HOT....

                                                              HOT

               Washington was an influential political figure and educator in an extremely turbulent time. He was also hot.

Charlie Chaplin 1889-1977

                                                          NOT HOT

                                                          HOT

                                                                              
This is one situation in which makeup definitely does not improve one's looks....

Rutherford B. Hayes 1822-1893

                                                        NOT HOT

HOT

The 19th President was apparently ranked by C-SPAN as the tenth worst president of all time. But, I bet if C-SPAN ranked the presidents by hotness Hayes would top the list....though it is C-SPAN so you never know....

Mark Twain 1835-1910

                                                                     NOT HOT

                                                                              HOT

         While the handlebar mustache and white hair are endearing, most pictures of Mark Twain look like he'd make a terrific grandfather.  Think again! Apparently, prior to his prolific literary career, Mark Twain was quite the attractive man.

Leo Tolstoy 1828-1910

                                                              NOT HOT

HOT 

                                                                                  
Grizzled 19th Century Russian authors usually aren't attractive (just google young Dostoevsky for proof) but young Leo Tolstoy somehow breaks this mold.  This is especially true if you are into angsty, brooding men. If so,  then young Leo Tolstoy is for you. очень жарко!
