The Hall of Presidence

The hall of presidents is one of the many places in america where nationalism meets capitalism. The animatronics are at once creepily lifelike and terrifyingly robotic. As my five year old daughter said at a recent visit to the hall of presidents, those are not humans. Only a couple of the presidents actually speak. Abraham lincoln stands and recites the gettysburg address, and since the early nineties, the animatronic current president makes a speech at the end using their own voice.
