Harriet Tubman is your potential replacement for Jackson on the $20 bill.

[Denny347]

Sounds good to me.

 

[Birds Away]

Works for me also. Never been a big fan of Jackson.

 

[Steve B]

I vote for Julia Child.

As long as it's still worth $20, I don't care who is on it.

Hasn't been worth $20 for a long time my friend. Our currency is do devalued that even the $1 bill is approaching irrelevancy. Even the esteemed IRS rounds to the nearest $10.

I'll take all those annoying $1s off your hands.

HT checks off two aggrieved groups. Any chance she was a lesbian as well? A third group would be a real bonus.

Nice way to try and tarnish the legacy of an American hero by devaluing her to her two most base traits.

[Leadeye]

Just keep Andy, I like him.

 

[printcraft]

In other news....... coinage is being reworked too......... Here is a 50¢ piece.......

 

[JettaKnight]

I recommend Molly Pitcher.

What about Molly Hatchet?


The twenty is used to take care of business.

Don't know about that, but some of the people who voted for her may choke when they find out she was a gun-toting, war-hero Republican. I'm all for it.

But, but, but haven't you heard?
The white supremacist Southern Democrats magically transmogrified into Republicans in the 1960s, and the Republicans transmogrified into Democrats at the same time.
The original Southern Democrats (now calling themselves Republicans, mind you) never stayed Democrats, and they never died out.
In fact, those original Democrats...er Republicans...never die off, just as their unending racism never dies.
They have superhuman abilities that no else has.
I know, 'cause MSDNC/DailyKOS/Think Progress/MoveOn/ad nauseum tell me so.

That's more true than you realize. Civil Rights Act made a LOT of people switch parties. Blue states became red, almost overnight (figuratively, of course).

[D-Ric902]

Shouldn't Tubman be on a dollar coin?
Susan B Anthony
Sacagawea
Tubman

not
Washington
Lincoln
Tubman

of course I'm probably too racist to know any different

 

[miguel]

Sacagawea needs a make-up for the failed dollar coin, so put her on it!

Yep. Saw it happen in my own extended family, state and hometown. Yankees don't like to acknowledge it, and neither does the republican party, but it's a fact. Even the klan members down south switched from dem to republican. Matched up with their evangelical outlook and conservative ways.

[Kutnupe14]

I would bet, of the people still living, that could vote prior to passage of the civil rights act, the majority have switched parties.

Oh yeah, I've seen the same thing in the south.
