re: #85 jaunte

I see McNaughton has Clinton, FDR and Teddy Roosevelt off to the right side (their left) applauding. Eisenhower (of the 90% top tax rate) isn’t
part of the group, but seems to be hidden off in the background.

Yeah, Eisenhower is way in the back with such luminaries as Franklin Pierce and Warren Harding. The comments also use Rutherford B. Hayes to plug a return to the gold standard, giving Hayes’s return to the standard the credit for the recovery from the Panic of 1873 (ie 4 years before Hayes took office, and 6 years before the return to the gold standard.)
