All the facts are in that documentary that I graciously provided you with, "Christians"

I am no expert on Mt. Rushmore, but obviously you are not either.

And not all the so called "facts" you claim are in the documentary.

For example you claim in a post that Mt. Rushmore was Borglum's idea.

That is clearly an incorrect statement and shown to be wrong via the US Government Mt. Rushmore official Brochure:

"In 1923, Doane Robinson, the State Historian of South Dakota, read of the Stone Mountain venture and wrote to Borglum about the
possibility of doing a mountain carving in the Black Hills"


https://www.nps.gov/moru/planyourvisit/upload/Sculptor%20Gutzon%20Borglum.pdf

And really as stated before all of this crap you pretend matters about "who did what" "when what was started"..." does not dispute one iota the factual data stated in the picture I posted. There are no faces on Mt. Rushmore that served as President of the United States while in the Democratic Party and hopefully there never will be.

Facts?  none of you have any facts.  The idea of the South Dakota historian was to create a huge sculpture as a tourist attraction. Borglum decided to use Washington, Lincoln and Jefferson and his friend Theodore Roosevelt as its subjects. Note that Borglum named his son Lincoln. The subjects and the arrangement in which they would be placed was all up to Borglum. And is was NOT done to glorify the Republican Party or to put down the Democratic Party, as CU claimed in his silly plagiarized post.

Borglum knew Theodore Roosevelt personally.

And even if your points were all correct, what the heck does all that crap matter?

No Democrats are on Mt. Rushmore!

Has that point changed because of all this distractive garbage you keep posting?

ps: I am sure the rock buster had complete free reign...
heck he could have decided to put Karl Marx up there!

I NEVER claimed the intention was to glorify the Republican Party or put down the Democratic Party.

It is however a fact that ZERO members of the Democratic Party are on Mt. Rushmore.

And no matter who you try to demonize
No matter how much you try to spin who did what or who decided what

The fact remains that tomorrow morning...

There will be no members of the Democratic Party memorialized on Mt. Rushmore!
