Presidents are leaders of men, giants of history, and some of the most revered figures of all time. And they’re also just… regular guys. 

A lot of Presidents do a pretty good job at looking regal and intimidating, but sometimes you see a picture of them in motion or just making a weird face, and the whole modern king vibe is so swiftly undercut. Bush Jr. in particular seems really adept at looking silly. A lot of his funniest moments have the energy of a weird cousin at a reunion who drank too much. Nixon, probably because he kind of looks like a grumpy cow even on his best days, has some hilarious moments. And then there’s Eisenhower. The Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces somehow managed to look like a dainty little ballerina a lot.

Take a look back into history, and see the fathers of a nation look more like your goofy dad on vacation.
