Pickup Lines: The Founding Fathers Remix

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at WM chapter.

Valentine’s Day is here, as well as President’s Day weekend, so now is the time to make a move on the person of your dreams. Since we have Colonial Williamsburg next door to remind us of early American history, why not try out some pickup lines inspired by our founding fathers and first five presidents?
