George Washington actually had some semblance of sense, not wanting to be President at all, setting a precedent for term limits, and warning against a two party system (pain). However, all that quality leadership goes down the drain when you remember he still owned slaves.

Dwight Eisenhower hated Nazis, which is more than you can say about the current President. He signed a Civil Rights Act, gave us interstates, and warned us about the military industrial complex. If more Republicans idolized Eisenhower than his VP, we’d actually get somewhere.

So you agree? Teachers are criminally underpaid and deserve a raise?
So Biden’s $15 minimum wage comes out to $31,200 a year for a 40 hour work week. The starting salary for a beginning teacher in Texas is $33,660. So a person working a minimum wage job will be making almost the same as a teacher with a college degree. Does this make any sense? 🤷♂️

Martin Van Buren sucked. Inherited Jackson’s hellhole of an economy, and somehow made it WORSE. On top of that started yet ANOTHER war against Natives. Not only that, he’s credited for helping solidify the two-party system. Remember this face when you begrudgingly vote for Biden.
