Presidential Sign Names

Not sure what possessed me to think about presidential sign names as I slowly emerged from sleep this morning. Perhaps because Obama announced his VP pick this morning...

OK, Nixon - the letter 'N' across the chin for lying, right? Lying Nixon...

Carter - the letter 'C' signed as 'peanut'.

Ford - did he have a sign name?

Bush, Sr.?

What's Bush, Jr's sign name?

Reagan - the famous 'R' sign alongside the top of the head...

What's Clinton's sign name?

And what will the new president's sign name be?

I've seen elsewhere that Obama is signed as 'O' and then turned around to end in a 'b'... What would McCain's sign name be?

I find elections so fascinating and exciting, and always wondering, how are we going to sign their names?

Not sure how to post video or pictures to Blogger...

I tried to Google "Presidential Sign Names" - nada. Googled "sign names of presidents" - nope. What search term should I use to find sign names of past presidents?

The Jonas Brothers...

OK, so tweens are crazy about The Jonas Brothers, right? Well, just now, this morning, I saw a mention on the Good Morning America show that the brothers' mother is/was a sign language teacher! Interesting. I wonder if the Jonas Brothers know any signs? It'd be cool if they could create a sign music video! What do you think?
