המקום אליו נשיאים מתים הולכים כדי למות

לפני כמעט עשור, יזמית ופסל מווירג׳יניה, ארה״ב, החליטו לבנות ״פארק נשיאים״ - אטרקציה תיירותית שמציגה פסלי ענק של כל נשיאי ארה״ב. לצערם, אחרי שהשלימו את הפרויקט ופתחו את הפארק, מעוטר ב-43 נשיאים, הם גילו שתיירי האיזור לא ממש מתעניינים בנשיאי ענק.

וכך עומדים להם 43 נשיאים נטושים בחווה של חבר, מתפוררים לאיטם, חלק הגדול נסדק וניזוק במעבר מהפארק הסגור לחווה הפרטית, והמחזה מוזר ונפלא:

“When I left Springfield, I asked the people to pray for me, I was not a Christian. When I came to Washington, I was not a Christian. When my beloved son Willie died, I was not a Christian. But when I went to Gettysburg, and there looked over those thousands of white crosses, I then and there consecrated my heart to Christ. Yes, I do love Jesus.” -Abraham Lincoln.
