Idea for new Hall of Presidents show

In the wake of these two controversial candidates, I suggest changing the show so the newly elected President is not put in the show forever. The show would instead focus on the remarkable achievements of the Presidential office. Each President that did some extraordinary would be able to tell his/her story and possibility see some reenactments. For example, Washington would talk about the Birth of the Nation. Lincoln would talk about the Civil War. Roosevelt would talk about World War II. Kennedy would talk about the Cuban Missile Crisis, etc. The current President would not automatically be included in the show until that person does something worthy of the Office and the show.

This is something that really needs to happen. Can you imagine The Hall of Presidents with a Donald Trump speech? :hilarious::cyclops:

Every president has had haters, but they are still represented. If you go back and study some of the ones people seem to idolize, you will see just how hated --with cause--they were at the time.
Many people love Trump or Clinton. Just because some don't like them does not mean he/she shouldn't be represented if this nation puts her/him in office.

I think this might be the way to go anyway. While not every president is loved and some are quite controversial, sooner or later, the stage will get to be so full with presidents that listing them by name each time will start to take 15 minutes, and I don't know about anyone else, but I don't want to sit through anything that just lists names for that long. :bored: Might as well change the format now.

This is probably the route they'll have to go at some point or group them by eras, events, etc. I have poured through a few presidential biographies when I get a reading itch, but as nice as the heat break is, the show could drag on if they just keep adding.

If they want a real update, they should go this route.
