Mount Rushmore 2-specific rules: Happy President's Day! US Presidents only, real ones and not someone like Dick Cheney because he was president for a few hours while GWB had surgery. The only presidents not eligible are the ones on Mount Rushmore 1 (George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Teddy Roosevelt, Abe Lincoln). If you want you can imagine they are building this down the way from Mount Rushmore 1 (if location matters to you). Please keep extended political talk out of this topic. I understand that there's going to have to be some but let's not turn Mount Rushmore 2 Toxic please. I will absolutely close this topic and we will forget it ever happened.

Going into page 2 there were only 3 votes for the FF Main Theme, when users Waluigi1 and Ulti pointed out how that is crazy. Turns out it did legit seem some people were confusing Prelude with the Main Theme, and while the Main Theme did recover a bit after this, Prelude was way too far ahead, and came close to overthrowing OWA several times. Main Theme ended up finishing in a distant 5th but probably would have done worse if it wasn't for the mid-topic debate. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/0/0e729d82.png AI Rushmore: It kept just making angels with one or more wings.

Heres my non-American opinion:
FDR Eisenhower JFK Obama FDR is pretty obvious. Eisenhower has interstate highways and NASA. JFK is massively overrated, but he got shot and Vietnam disqualifies LBJ so onto the Rushmore he goes. Obama absolutely rescued the US economy and if it had been austerity in response to 2008 America would be in the same boat as many parts of Europe, still not recovered from the recession. These are the four, all compromised in different ways but all with their accomplishments too. --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh azuarc ... Copied to Clipboard!

I should have asked in the other topic, but when we say "Victory Theme," are we just referring to the 4 second jingle? it's a bit longer than that, there's a brief tune that plays after. but yes. anyway, for this one uh... looking at people's noms most clearly aren't remembering that presidents before the original mount rushmore was made exist. FDR Woodrow Wilson FDR's the only lock. 4 terms, Depression, WW2. Wilson should be the second lock. 2 terms, WW1, League of Nations, Federal Reserve, labor laws. like it's dumb to not have him when he did a hell of a lot more than anybody else available. last two don't know yet. JFK is popular but that's really it, just popular name. the dude was president for 2 and a half years. his assassination has bloated his placement to an extreme because as far as presidents go there wasn't much he did. there could have been a lot. unfortunately a magic bullet took him out and being on a Rushmore makes no sense. tempted for a Reagan/Obama split as that's the clearest split of who the right and left find most endearing in polarizing ways. but there's also a long, long history to go through. also Jackson would feel like trolling. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. ...

FDR and three blank spots is probably the answer because of just how far ahead of the pack he is
But if youre making me pick FDR LBJ - Civil Rights, Medicare, Medicaid, the good versions of Social Security and Welfare all stem from his admin. Yes Vietnam is a thing but the major war crimes are mainly nixon and the idea of the war is mainly kennedy, LBJ is just holding the bag and you know what US relations with Vietnam are fine now so the lasting damage is way overstated. Grant - the only president pre Eisenhower who gave a SHIT about Jim Crow. Yes his admin is responsible for some wildly, irresponsibly pro corporate shit and he had some blatant grifters working for him, he was president for one reason and if the GOP had kept up his commitment to sending troops adter the klan the world might be a better place. 4th is tricky because these candidates dont have sparing highs to outweigh their negatives or in the case of the one who does have soaring highs his negatives are literally genocide Jackson - oversaw major expansion of the franchise and was responsible for really making the country significantly more democratic, this included defeating the idea of a National Bank which i know you libertarians liked. But you know...strongly pro slavery, responsible for a lot of anti native american genocide. Van Buren - Jacksons right hand for all of the above but he was also the first president to take actions trying to limit the spread of slavery and would later become a full blown abolotionist. The trick is Jackson wqs actually president for the realization of all of Van Burens pro liberalization of the vote goals and his attempts to slow the spread of slavery were ultimately ineffective. Arthur - Against all odds and at great personal expense, he followed through on Garfields promise to end the patronahe system and passed the laws that created the modern federal bureaucracy, a move absolutely vital for the accomplishments ofnthe Progressives and FDR/LBJ. But this was his only accomplishment and he did sign the chinese exclusion acts. Adams - Kept the US out of major wars, opposer slavery, downside he was kinda fashy. And to argue against some people getting votes who DO NOT deserve them Polk - You are aware the They Might Be Giants song is supposed to be highlighting what a piece of shit he was right? Doubled down on genocide vs natives, picked a war of territorial aggression with Mexico, massively expanding the country with absolutely NP regard for the delicate peace between free and slave states (because he WANTED the expansion of slavery) and tried to pick wars with britain and russia over oregon. Just not a guy id ever vote for unless youre sp unbothered by this shit that youre putting Jackson over him. JFK - Two failed coups against Castro, commiting troops the vietnam in what will be the proximate cause of the Vietnam War and the weaksauce version of the civil rights act makes him LBJ without any of the good shit. Im gonna be bothered by genocide enough to vote Arthur even though its probably Jackson So FDR LBJ Grant Arthur --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://i.imgur.com/AWY4xHy.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oh we wanna do Wilson and Madison too
Wilson - Not sure what youre voting for here? Being the worst of the three progressive presidents? Absolutely no reason to put him over Taft. He also segregated the federal service, so thanks for that Woody. His ideas regardong international community destablizrd the fuck out the balkans and his insistence on the League of Nations (which he couldnt even convince his own congress to join) crowded out better ideas and led directly to the international framework Hitler abused to rise to power. Then the last few years of his presidency were basically weekend at Bernies because he had a stroke and his wife secretly ran the country in his stead. Madison - Only by grace of Napoleon returning from exile was the US not absolutely fucked by his decision to provoke a war with britain. Only worth putting here if youre gonna include pre presidential accomplishments (mostly the constitution). Wouldnt put him here over Franklin or Hamilton for revolutionary accomplishments though. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://i.imgur.com/AWY4xHy.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!
