2. The only thing worse

will be when Raygun is on a coin. :scared:

[JVS]

3. The program is not guaranteed to continue past 2016, but if it does...

there will also be Clinton coins.

4. I thought you couldnt put a person on a coin until they were dead?

which rules out Clinton, for a long while anyway.

[azmouse]

5. But wouldn't the Big Dog have to be dead to be on a coin?

Isn't that the rule? No living persons on coins or stamps? :shrug:

13. There aren't supposed to be living persons on Naval vessels either

which explains the USS Jimmy Carter, the USS Ronald Reagan (the ship went on active duty while he was still alive), the USS George H.W. Bush, and the USS George W. Bush (ex-USS Oriskany), which is in 300 feet of water off Pensacola.

The Navy reports that they are going to wait until Hillary has served out her two terms as president before they choose the USS The Clintons.

11. OK, let's see. Ford and Carter aren't likely to be around by 2016.

So 2016 gets Nixon, Ford, Carter, and Raygun.

2017 gets Poppy (another one who will likely be dead) but probably not Clinton and * and the next one or two Prezes.

6. wow, Grover Cleveland gets TWO coins

in 2012

how will they tell them apart?

[JVS]

12. I hope they do the classy thing and use different portraits

[LynneSin]

7. Well it's the only way they'll get Reagan on a coin

He's not getting anything else!!

[swag]

8. That reminds me,

"A year from now I'd be surprised if there's not some grand square in Baghdad that is named after President Bush."

9. Thats great...

that will make my dad pitch a fit...he is a coin collector, and he HATES Nixon....I think my dad just might get them, just to throw them in the trash...

10. They'll be worth about a gumball then.

They'll be made out of aluminum and worth their weight as scrap. It will be illegal to recycle them, but nobody will pay attention as they are thrown in with the aluminum cans.

There's always a brighter side to these things!
