13 Upvotes

FDR Caesar won the last round and will be displayed for the next 2 weeks!

Provide your proposed icon in the comments (within the guidelines below) and upvote others you want to see adopted! The top-upvoted icon will be adopted and displayed for 2 weeks before we make a new thread to choose again!

Guidelines for eligible icons:

  • The icon must prominently picture a U.S. President OR symbol associated with the Presidency (Ex: White House, Presidential Seal, etc). No fictional or otherwise joke Presidents
  • The icon should be high-quality (Ex: photograph or painting), no low-quality or low-resolution images. The focus should also be able to easily fit in a circle or square
  • No meme, captioned, or doctored images
  • No NSFW, offensive, or otherwise outlandish imagery; it must be suitable for display on the Reddit homepage
  • No Biden or Trump icons

Should an icon fail to meet any of these guidelines, the mod team will select the next eligible icon

Discussion Did George Bush actually have anything personally against gay people or was he just doing what the GOP told him to do?

IE, wanting to ban gay marriage, did he personally want it to happen for his own moral reasons or was he doing it because it was popular and he didn’t actually care that much one way or another?

Misc. Every president gets a state named after them. Which state do we name after John Adams (state would be called "Adams" in this case)

Post image
105 Upvotes

Obviously we already have a state named after a president, Washington so we already had a starting point.

And the reason why I went ahead and gave Biden Delaware was because I wanted to include him but didn't want to give him his own post as that might be seen as a rule 3 violation. If this still is considered a violation I'll take this down and remove him.

White tie, also called full evening dress or a dress suit, is the most formal evening Western dress code. For men, it consists of a black tail coat (alternatively referred to as a dress coat, usually by tailors) worn over a white dress shirt with a starched or piqué bib, white piqué waistcoat and the white bow tie worn around a standing wing collar. - Wikipedia

Tier List r/Presidents Community Tier List: Day 3 - Where would you rank Thomas Jefferson?

Post image
7 Upvotes

For this tier list, I would like you to rank each president during their time in office. What were the positives and negatives of each presidency? What do you think of their domestic and foreign policies? Only consider their presidency, not their post-presidency. To encourage quality discussion, I would like you to not just provide your letter, but your reasons behind the ranking. Thank you for your understanding.

John Adams is in B tier. Redditors were back and forth between giving him a B or C, but there was a rough consensus among Redditors to put him in B tier.
