Oh, and a Republican signed the bill creating and funding it

Not that that matters much. After meetings with the Republican Sec. of the Treasury of course. The fact that Republicans owned both houses of Congress at the time mattered little as well.

This thread is silly but your post made me think...what if the choices for Rushmore were partisan?

Who is on it that shouldn’t be? Who should be on it instead?
Started in 1927...approved in 1925...so anyone after that is out, but it could also be interesting to say “Who would be on it if we did it today?”

Very rough translation of the parties
Apr 30, 2020, 12:24 PM
|

Democratic-Republicans would be mostly Republicans today
Federalists would be mostly Democrats today
Again roughly speaking.

Generally my comparison is accurate

Demographics, politics, very similar. Federalists wanted larger, more powerful federal government. They tended to be more wealthy, less involved in agriculture, and mostly urban. Democratic-Republicans tended to live in rural areas, tended to be farmers, and were wary of federal power and supported less federal and more state power. And originally, Democratic Republicans outnumbered Federalists.
And you could count the slave owners out of the dem party, although later you could count the slave owners out of the Republican party.

Something not everyone knows about Mt. Rushmore...
Apr 30, 2020, 2:42 PM
|

the sculptures were supposed to go from the presidents' heads down to their waists, but the project ran out of money and they had to stop with just their heads.
So like a typical Republican project, there were big promises but it turned out to be a giant bust.

I would also vote for Amos or Andy, George Jefferson, or Sammy Davis Jr. Actually, anyone beside Obama. Fresh Prince? Yep.
