If you would like to improve on this article, please
Here are the comments I left after assessing your article:
Footnotes are not needed in the lead paragraph. If you feel you need to include/source the "Sandy" nickname, write a sentence in the body of the article and source it there.
Not that I want to necessarily defend Mr. Warner, but it seems to me that this article has a number of unnecessarily anatagonistic jabs at him. In particular, the comments "... and having genes that give stature merely from being tall, Warner additionally had another unearned advantage over other Yale applicants..." and the repeated references to his draft status. It's not clear that he did anything in particular to avoid being drafted, and the additional reference to President GW Bush's military service (or lack thereof) also does not belong in this article.
