<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 94493, member: 4626"]Think that some would for sake of completeness prefer to have living former presidents honored as well, so as to have an unbroken series from the president to the former president immediately preceding whoever the sitting president is at the time of the series completion. As to which would prevail, wouldn't hazard a guess. Political argument of the merits of the living former presidents may come up in such discussions, lol... as to my personal opinion, honoring all is the best way to prevent that kind of thing, since it shows favoritism to none. My preference would be the House version myself, just because I wouldn't like gaps in the series merely because some of the former presidents happen to still be alive.</p><p><br /></p><p>Would say it's a near guarantee that the president will sign the one that ends up on his desk... as historical precedent suggests that it's very unlikely that a president will veto a bill regarding coin design. To date none ever has.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
