   I wish I could remember where I found this, but I was so taken with it
   that it is now my new PC wallpaper.

   Forget whatever politics and history you see beyond their common party
   affiliation. I think this is just a great concept, skillfully
   executed. It would work as well with Jefferson, FDR, Truman, Kennedy,
   Johnson, Carter, and Clinton. It evoked memories from several decades.
   As then, I like Ike!
   This also reminded me of Steve Allen's old [1]PBS "Meeting of Minds"
   series where he empaneled a number of historical figures from
   different centuries. We perhaps saw too much of his wife, Jayne
   Meadows, but it was otherwise excellent television, a great blend of
   educational content, perspective and entertainment.
