I can't really think of any. Johnson had a horse face but other than the Civil Rights act I don't know that he was great.

Any you can think of?

5. I actually thought that Jefferson was a hottie, have you seen the $20 bill
lately?

But I will agree Jefferson is the founder and original long faced Democrat.

7. Jackson is on the 20
I think Kerry looks sorta like Lincoln in height and stature and facially a little and a little like Jackson but more like Lincoln.

8. Kerry will, I think, replace Lincoln as our tallest.
I wish I thought that height and facial dimensions are predictive. John Kerry will be a great President, but he will need to rise to the level of a Lincoln to fix this disaster.

Often it is the case that great Presidents are made by great challenges. Lincoln was preceded by Buchanan, generally included among the worst Presidents. Of course, Bush would certainly qualify for the worst President were he President. But Bush is not President, since it is not constitutional for the Supreme Court to install a person to the office, which is therefore technically vacant.

He is the worst person ever to have acted as President.

11. The day after JK's election win (God willing), you should greet every
Repub apologist you know with "why the long face?"
