 The US $20 bill features the White House, home to the US president.

The "plus" in the title refers to:
1) the Washington Monument. I could've cloned it out, but it shows how that very tall structure pops into view all over the area.

2) the anti-nuke signs. Those guys have been there as long as I can remember, and protests in general are a part of DC life.

You are right at the hub of the American business of being America zone. It's good to have a Washington reporter that shows it like it actually is.

It does really give a true sense of what America is all about. Being able to protest right in front of the White House and all. I probably would do the same thing (take a pic with them) just to give a true sense of the area....and then take one without that I would want to hang on my wall or whatever...

Naah, I actually took a shot without them first. Then I thought about it, moved back, and shot again to get them in there. Those people between the signs and the next fence are taking pics without 'em. :)
