@soona I'd suggest however, that besides Jefferson, none of these figures were particularly important in 1776! John Adams was 40, Washington was 45, Franklin was 70. None of the signers of the DOI was under 30, and most were in their 40s.

@lovr23_ It's much worse... he was spending the days naked with Jack's fiancee, now wife. That was his co-star! (he was a last minute replacement... obviously taylor got him the job since they needed someone that Margaret Qualey would be comfortable with naked)

@NeelMadhavan The thing about Taylor Swift is that ultimately... she's just fun to watch. Besides being stunningly beautiful she just gets REALLY REALLY EXCITED about everything. It's the same reason they show her constantly at awards shows.
