I noticed this picture last night while watching Colbert:

Mount Rushmore has nothing to do with glorifying great presidents. It has to do with glorifying expansionism, imperialism and the subjugation of peoples. If I was a President, I'd be insulted to have my face up there. It's a monument to ethnocentrism.

 
I also agree with nobody, but if I had to choose, I would pick Ike also. Reagan/FDR are too partisan, and JFK would just be up there because he got killed.
 
I'd put Andrew Jackson on it. He was the only president who had balls. He shot people when they needed to be shot. The rest of them are wimps who simply want(ed) votes.
 
Cheney.

Shot a lawyer in the face.
 
I'm not anti-Ike, but what exactly makes Eisenhower so special?

I would like for Mount Rushmore to remain as it is, but you should stop telling people the you lean Liberal if you are going to keep posting as if history does not exist.

You give Liberal a bad name end after treating Obama like he really knows something they don't need more help looking foolish.
