Re: Hall of Presidents

George W. Bush was added in July 2001, after being put into office January 2001. So, assuming they keep a similar timeline, I'd guess whoever the new president is would arrive sometime during the summer of 2009.

That is too funny! Do you think they would get to be Grand Marshall of the Parade? How about the "first family"?

Re: Hall of Presidents

I hope I don't offend anyone, but I would probably pee my pants if an animatronic Hilary was set into the hall of Presidents. Scary!

Re: Hall of Presidents

Can you believe that in all the times that I have been I have never seen this attraction? Is this something that I need to make it a point to see??

Re: Hall of Presidents

When we did the "Keys to the Kingdom" tour our guide talked a lot about this. Blaine Gibson, who's been given world renowned accolades for his extremely realisitc Presidential busts came out of retirement to do several of the sculptures: (I took this from Walt Disney World - Tribute to the President)

"Gibson has been primarily responsible for creating the 42-member presidential cast, even coming out of retirement to sculpt presidents Ronald Reagan, George Bush, Bill Clinton and now, George W. Bush. (Although George W. Bush is the 43rd president, only 42 individuals have served in the presidency.)"

I could have SWORN our guide said that it takes an average of 6-9 months to complete the presidential bust after the inauguration.

Someone was president twice...I could google it to find out who, but I'm lazy... regardless - that's the answer.

Grover Cleveland served two terms that were separated by Benjamin Harrison's presidency.
