I hope Trump gets onto some type of currency! I remember the President’s easier due to them being on the money. Great cartoon! Money is just a “Tool” to share – in my opinion. Jackie loves your blog!
Well, I guess the upside for those presidents on the smaller currency is that people see them more often. There are a lot more dimes in the world than hundred dollar bills, after all. Though, I feel bad for Lincoln having to be on the penny. Pennies always seem to turn a strange color after a while.
this comic is great – ha! and I was just reading about the history of presidents on the postage stamp in the US and it is quite a story. for years they only had presidents – and then changed – which was not received well – so went back to presidents until the 70s – and then artsy stuff unfolded
anyhow, very cool comic – have a nice day
So, who gets to decide who is the greatest President. Maybe the greatest is yet to come. Talk about a moving target. I guess the past ones aren’t moving anymore.
I could imagine for Trump the 1000-dollar-bill would return. I’m just trying to find out how to ever get one of these into my hands so I can have a good laugh at the hairstyle… *chuckle*
And to think Alexander Hamilton, perhaps the most important of the Founding Fathers , does not get royalties. An outrage. Or at least rebate to all Italians as Hamilton’s real name was Alessandro Hamatelli. Abraham Linguine , Washingtonelli and Rosevetti would agree.
