How to commemorate President’s Day aside from acknowledging Washington and Lincoln

1. Post GWB’s picture and pine for the good old days
2. Contemplate how much better off we would have been if Garfield hadn’t been assassinated
3. Focus on how improved this country has been for minorities and women
4. Learn more about the 2020 candidates
5. Post Millard Fillmore’s painting and lament the passing of the Whig party
6. Put up a sign “Hillary in 2020”
7. Wishing the current president had followed in the footsteps of William Henry Harrison
8. Spit on Woodrow Wilson’s grave.
