<< I presume that Clinton has made his own changes to the "public"
 rooms of the White House congruent with his own ideology, and I would
 assume, therefore, that Coolidge has been returned to whatever less visible
 space he once occupied.  This simply illustrates the entirely banal point
 that political leaders arrange "public space" in all sorts of ways to
 reinforce their own favored political perspectives.

There is a Lincoln statue here in Washington that was removed from public
display for years and then found at the Navy Yard and returned to public
display during one of the republican administrations.
