We watched a PBS documentary about the bombing of Germany in WWII and what I learned is that Eleanor looks like Dwight D. Eisenhower. I mean really, really looks like him.
So we’re calling her Ike. We’re a little disappointed she’s chosen to resemble a dead, male, Republican known as a “do-nothing” president who didn’t oppose McCarthyism but we love her no matter what. Kids!
this. is. awesome.
(and i still think she’s adorable)
Well, at least Eisenhower warned against (and coined the expression) the military-industrial complex (or something like that). His campaign slogan was “We Like Ike” so we can all continue to like him via his incarnation as Ellie D.
hilarious
Funny – I was watching a WWII documentary yesterday as well – all colour (that’s how we Canucks spell it!) footage. Coincidence? I think not…..I think you are on to something….future President maybe?
