If you grant that not all currency requires a President, and I am fine with this, then Harriet Tubman is an exceptional choice. The lady was the very definition of a Tier One Operator. She was, simply put, a straight up bad ass her entire life. My question: which bill or coin do we want to put Obama on? Like him or not, he is our first black President. Maybe when they put out a $3 bill. Um, Lindsay Graham already called that one. Incorrect. I personally own several Clinton $3 bills. They're one sided, printed in red ink, and are on thin paper that you can see through when you hold it up to the light. |

I doubt the left know any of the history behind this because, let's be honest, if they did they wouldn't be leftists. Well, it is funny a DEMOCRAT put a REPUBLICAN on the $20 bill. You all should be happy. So you see the world as Republican vs. Democrat and that's it? There's no doubt that she was a good person but the whole effort, time, and money to change this is to further perpetuate victim culture I doubt most people will see her a Republican gun owner, especially the younger generations I DON'T see it as Democrat vs Republicans, but I see the usually curing of liberal agenda. Victim culture? What victim? She refused to be a victim. If everyone was like Tubman we would all be in a better place. This is a fucking retarded argument. How is a black person who kicked ass some how promoting "victim culture"? It is laughable. how about doing something that is not f'ing "politically correct" and "socially acceptable"? the reason she was chosen was because there is a pseudo black person in office, and it would add to his "legacy" Actually, this being an SJW ploy tickles me even more than if they'd been legit. I LOVE when the left cluelessly debunk their own narrative without realizing they're giving us ammunition. I say we keep quiet until they actually get her on the bill, and then start flooding the airways with the image of her being a rebel against Democrat authority, a gun-toting champion of freedom, and an abolitionist Republican. Give that two years of wide dispersion and the left will be crying to have her taken off and replaced with Eleanor Roosevelt-- our first lesbian socialist president. |

OK, I am pretty sure Harriet Tubman wasn't mentioned in American History when I was in school. Seems to have gotten into the books in the 80s or so For that matter, Nicola Tesla either. Never heard of him before the hair band. Edison and Westinghouse? but not Tesla View Quote I graduated high school in the mid seventies, and we learned about her in grade school. In the early '60s before the SJWs got hold of things. But don't mind me-- I was eddimicated back when we taught about people because of what they did, not which target demographic they were part of. |

So selecting anyone besides a non-white male would be pandering to the politically correct? Do you realize you sound stupid?

I don't have much objection to getting rid of Jackson considering he is the founder of the modern Democratic party but why replace him with Tubman? We have plenty of other great presidents who could replace him on the $20. Or if the push is merely to have a woman on our currency, then why not a woman influential in the founding of our nation such as Mercy Otis Warren?

Fuck Jackson
In contrast to the Jeffersonian era, Jacksonian democracy promoted the strength of the presidency and executive branch at the expense of Congress, while also seeking to broaden the public's participation in government. The Jacksonians demanded elected (not appointed) judges and rewrote many state constitutions to reflect the new values.

I want to see Alexander Hamilton replaced with Malcolm X on the ten. In the corners of the bill replace "10" with "X", and then see who can figure it out.

Meh.. I'm not a huge fan of the decision. As a previous poster stated, I don't think she is significant enough to put her on one of the most commonly used bills. SJW feels. I'd be better with MLK.
