*I don't think any of these three guys are heart-throb Valentino types, but all three of them are really and seriously pushing it physically. Reagan was never afraid of plastic surgery, Schwarzenegger is like a plastic action figure... Putin, Sarkozy and Obama are not trying to be "sexy," but they are major political leaders methodically pushing diet and exercise into arenas formerly reserved for models and athletes. That's a strange trend. You wonder what kind of nutriceutical brain drugs these guys might be consuming.
