Reply #9: Does anyone remember a politician from Dothan in the late 60's [View All]

[EMAN51]

or early 70's by the name of Charles Woods? I don't remember his political affiliation or what office he was seeking, but as a teenager in Huntsville I vividly remember seeing his commercials on television. I remember a brave man who was severely disfigured (I dont't know if it was war related or what the circumstances were). He had no hair, wore a black eye patch over one eye and did not have any ears--could have been burns. He would sit and speak directly at the camera. I think he may have had an auto dealership. Although I don't recall his stances or views, the simple fact that he was brave enough to speak publicly despite his physical infirmaties left an indelible impression on me.
