February 20, 2015: AmericanStudying Non-Favorites: Low Five

[Last year, I followed the Valentine’s series with a complementary series analyzing some of the things that just don’t quite do it for me. It was pretty popular, including my biggest crowd-sourced post to date, so this year I’m repeating the series—and repeating the request for your non-favorites for a crowd-sourced post in which we’ll air some grievances!]Five historical figures with whom I have a bone—or a whole skeleton—to pick. To see the full x-ray, check out those posts!1)      Nathan Bedford Forrest2)      George Wallace3)      Rutherford B. Hayes4)      George McClellan and Andrew Johnson (two for the price of one!)5)      Andrew Jackson“I got a lot of problems with you [historical] people; now, you’re gonna hear about it!”Crowd-sourced post this weekend,Ben
PS. So bring it on: one more chance to air some grievances ahead of that weekend post!
