Honoring President Alexander Hamilton:.
“Starting tomorrow, Groupon will be kicking off Presidents Day weekend by giving customers 10 dollars off 40 dollars… The $10 bill, as everyone knows, features President Alexander Hamilton – undeniably one of our greatest presidents…”
It’s been a discouraging week. Federal judges confusing the Declaration of Independence with the Constitution, a survey that says 25% of Americans don’t know the planet circles the sun, Republicans giving Obama a blank check… and now this.

Good grief, the state of Oregon also thinks Alexander Hamilton was a president:

Next thing we will learn soon is that President Zero is actually King !!!
King is a demotion from messiah.... what an Obummer.
Next they will honor Barky by putting his face on the $3 bill.
Him on the front, and Reggie behind...........
Does no one study history anymore?
Does no one study history anymore?
Oh God, I hope not. You have no idea how much money I have won betting people they could not name the president who's face is on a hundred dollar bill.
I could have used a ten, but how many people even know who is on a ten?
Clearly not. I wonder if the whole thing was deliberate- to see how long it took for someone to point out that Alexander Hamilton was never president. I cannot begin to believe that it was an honest mistake that slipped past marketing. I see it as perhaps analogous to sticking a fork in a roast to see if it was done.
I refuse to believe that the failure of the "educational" system to teach basic American history is coincidental to what's happening now. Transformation to tyranny is being engineered and may well be inevitable.
More out come based education on display. A simple search would've told them that Hamilton was not President. That he was Secretary of the Treasurey. Maybe it's the fact that he got himself killed in a duel that Groupon wanted to elevate him to President.
Come on guys, this was a deliberate gag.
Two years ago I might have agreed. Today with the super smart hipster douchebags running tech companies I do not.
We know. So are our posts.
Hamilton and Burr had a gun control issue
To be precise, only Hamilton had a gun control issue. Burr had his gun under control.
Not only that but he was fluent in Austrian and instrumental in building the intercontinental railroad.
And invented the Internet?
Yeah I think he did that back when he was a corpse-man.
After he promised to cut insurance premiums 3000%.
But at least I got to keep my insurance if I liked it!
He's one of the 57 presidents that match the 57 states.
