Movie - The Trial of the Chicago7
In the movie, some government guy refers to former attorney general Ramsey Clark as "Ramsey". Clark responds "It's General Clark".
To my knowledge, Ramsey Clark was not a military general. Am I missing something? Are attorneys general referered to as "General"? |

Ego. I was with General Wes Clark, an actual retired General, a couple of weeks ago. He asked me to call him Wes, not General.

General Motors last week allowed me to call them GM. We're close like that.
