Presidential Morphology

So I'm just enjoying my weekend, doing pretty much nothing - which I hardly ever get to do, so it's a nice change of pace - and I remember I promised to put something up on the blog this weekend.

Along comes an email from list member Nancy M. with a clever little video showcasing portraits of all 44 of our Presidents. Enjoy.



What I want to know is what happened to society when our 28th President - Woodrow Wilson - was elected. Because ever since, not a single President has worn facial hair, whereas before him, nearly every President save one or two had some sartorial fuzziness on his face. Especially Rutherford B. Hayes. Whew!

Now you have to go back and watch it again, don't you...?
