Presidents Morphing

This is a cool video of all the presidents morphing into one another from George Washington to about-to-be Obama. Watching the changes in hair styles and beards (check out those Victorian face rugs!) is hilarious.



One thing I did notice was until FDR, all the portraits show somewhat stern, serious men. FDR starts off a chain of small, slight smiles.

Then we get Carter. With that big ole grin of his, and every president afterwards (except Bush Jr. - I have no idea what's going on with his mouth there) has an open-mouth smile.

I think I like the older guys better - at least they look like they are taking the job seriously.
