Going back to your title... No question is dumb if you don't know. Even more so in the coin collecting world. The only people in my opinion that think simple questions are dumb are the wannabe elitists. And they are usually the ones that think they know it all. But in realtime we know what is really going on.

Yet another reason why I only collect proof Presidential dollars.

Yet another reason why I don't collect Presidential dollars. I only have a few of interest.

I have an observation that may be of interest to the 'edge' variety collectors:

My previous post originated from http://www.smalldollars.com.

On another note a five year old youtube.com video narrated by Diane Sawyer discussed the proposed 2016 termination date of this series:

I cannot state with any degree of certainty that the term. date is now different.

Anyhow, according to small dollars.com these are a few of the candidates to replace the Presidential dollars:

I personally am hoarding them along with the copper pennies.

But seeing them in the video is amazing

Wow, interesting video! I didn't realize how many were being put in storage. Although they said the coins hardly circulate, from what I've seen they circulate fairly widely in this area, at least. However, if they stopped producing them now, we would still have enough minted over the past nine years to last quite a while.
I've also noticed that a large majority of presidentials I get in change are 2007 issues. Has anyone else seen that?

The Native American dollar coins will continue to be struck for collectors, there are no small dollars being struck for circulation anyhow, so there is no BUSINESS reason to need another series.

Yeah! After VPs they can do a series with all of the losing candidates from each election. Since there will be a lot from the smaller parties, they can cover one election per year.

I actually prefer state vegetables... after all, let's try and see - only 14 states have one, so that's just 3 years...

Oh and 4 are onions, 2 are tomatoes and 2 are corn. So maybe the US Mint can do scratch & sniff to distinguish the Walla Walla sweet onion, Spanish sweet onion, Sweet onion and the Vidalia sweet onion.

They come with the proof sets, so I may as well keep them.
