President’s Day is today, and it gives us an opportunity to reflect on all the men who have held the office of president. Since there hasn’t been a female president yet, what better way to celebrate than to imagine the vibes they would bring to a girl’s night?
The Scribe staff share what president they would want to spend a girl’s night with, for reasons ranging anywhere from spilling the tea to sharing playlists.
Zee O’Donnell | Co-Editor-in-Chief
James K. Polk because I feel like you gotta be pretty cool to have a They Might Be Giants song written about you.
Joe Impellitteri | Co-Editor-in-Chief
Me and Herbert Hoover. I’d be like “What is the deal with politics right now? I mean, dam.”
Ellie Myers | Associate Editor
I’d love to have a girl’s night with Abe Lincoln. We could go see a show together and I’d pick a less visible seat.
Tori Smith | Managing Editor
Obama but only if he brings Michelle.
Grace Brajkovich | News Editor
Barack.
Kaylie Foster | Features Editor
Obama, because I want access to the playlists.
Lillian Davis | Sports Editor and Photo Editor
I don’t know the presidents like that.
Syanna Santiago-Smith | Website Manager
George W. Bush. We can go mini-golfing and spill the tea (he may or may not know something the American population doesn’t know).
Kate Marlett | Copy Editor
John Adams, without a doubt. He was so sassy and I know he would have so much tea to spill on all the other founding fathers.
Weston Buhr | Business Manager
Theodore Roosevelt, for sure!!!
Laura Austin-Eurich | Faculty Advisor
I’m holding off until we have a female president.
Livi Davis | Reporter
Men don’t belong at girl’s night.
Abigail Katharin | Reporter
Teddy Roosevelt, but over a campfire and only if he invites a bear.
Ava Knox | Reporter
JIMMY CARTER.
Noah March | Reporter
Abraham Lincoln.
Rhianna Smith-Burns | Reporter
FDR, specifically with his fireside chats.
Logan Cole | Photographer
Obama, so I can add Creed to the President’s playlists.
Josiah Dolan | Photographer
I’d definitely have to choose my bestie, Teddy Roosevelt. He’d be the life of the party, but he was also apparently a good listener.
Anysia Hovel | Photographer
George Washington, cuz he cool.
