I still can’t believe they switched to Calibri at all; the only people who should be using Calibri are people who don’t realize that Microsoft Word lets you pick other fonts.
I do wish they’d gone for a classier serif though; Garamond was right there.
You think the US govenment would go for a French typeface?
To be fair, they did choose a Roman one - one with proper Italics even.

There's a certain je ne sais quoi to the US government's relationship with France.
I'm a Kings Caslon kinda guy myself. Partial to those more practical fonts. Can't beat 1800s print, they perfected the art by that point.
