President Donald Trump addressed the nation on Saturday at the White House, where he announced the first round of historical figures to be included in the National Garden of American Heroes.

[ConservativeDude]

So bit of self-indulgent fun. Who would you ADD to this list? Please, no deletions from Trump's list. It's an awesome list....let's just ADD, not take away :)

[Beowulf9]

So are these to be made? Of what? Is this a call to good sculptors or bronze casters? Marble. I really hope these will be of very high quality.

[libh8er]

Rush Limbaugh should also be in the National Garden.

winning sand sculpture in texas

[oldbill]

I’d add Oldbill.

President Trump announced the names of the “icons” who would receive statues first on Saturday, including:

Patton, Jr., Ronald Reagan, Jackie Robinson, Betsy Ross, Antonin Scalia, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Harriet Tubman, Booker T. Washington, George Washington, and Orville and Wilbur Wright.

Do not use the sculptor who did the MLK one in DC. That thing looks like a 10 year old did it.

[ConservativeDude]

I’d love to see:

Sam Houston
Eliza Hamilton (Alexander’s wife...I love the addition of Dolly Madison...but Eliza lived until 1856...the longest living of the founding generation!)

Sequoyah (I think it’s important to memorialize Native Americans....not in any politically correct way, but in an authentic way. How can we not admire this great man?)

Aaron Copland
Louis Armstrong
Ella Fitzgerald
Frank Capra
Cecil B. DeMille
Steve Jobs
Charlton Heston (damn right!)
Grant AND Lee (obviously won’t happen, but it’s the way it should be)
Robert Frost
Robert Penn Warren

Many many others but that’s a few off the top of my head

[ConservativeDude]

I’d vote for that!

[Dick Bachert]

Representative Lawrence P. (for PATTON, his mother’s cousin.
Killed with 268 others on KAL007.
Robert Welch,Jr., founder of the ANTI-COMMUNIST JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY. Named for Capt. John Birch KILLED while on a peaceful mission by the CHINESE.
Those two men did more to TRY to awaken Americans to what we have coming down on us NOW than just about any HUNDRED others one could name.
General Smedley Butler who told us that war is a racket.

[Joe 6-pack]

Lewis and Clark, Samuel Colt, Henry Ford, Nikola Tesla, Bill Donovan, Aaron Bank, Basil Plumley, James Gavin

[ConservativeDude]

Is Lawrence P that congressman who died on KAL 007? He was a Democrat John Birch member, if my memory is correct, and a physician?

Alvin York

[Michael.SF.]

Sgt. Alvin York

[ConservativeDude]

love Colt especially. Several of those others I don’t know!

I hadn’t appreciated Tesla as an American, but I love that thought!

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

Elon Musk Has to be there also!! Steve Jobs also absolutely changed the world!!

[ConservativeDude]

love that

[Michael.SF.]

Excellent.

[God luvs America]

Walt Disney...

Personally I would like to see Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Bonham and John Paul Jones as well- bit that’s not happening.

[Leaning Right]

My first thought was George Patton. He was an imperfect man, to be sure. But he represented America’s tough, can-do spirit.

But Patton is already in the list. So who would I nominate then, if not Patton? Maybe the guy who put the bomp in the bomp bah bomp. Who was that man? I’d like to shake his hand. He made my baby fall in love with me.

(Sorry, couldn’t resist. It’s just that I’m currently on a 1960s doo-wop kick.)
