Pretty nondescript American to be on the face of money
But hey, Mirian Anderson made it too . . . .
I'm sure you've seen the recent news that Harriet Tubman will be the new face of the $20 bill.
She may indeed be the first libertarian to be featured on US currency!
:)
They say she shot some Democrats.

I saw that IowaHawk picture on Facebook. What a wonderful way to tweak the lefties noses. They thought they were just honoring a black woman, & could claim points for doing so. But honoring a Black Republican (or Libertarian) who very obviously understood gun rights is just too funny!
Jackson was one of our greatest presidents, a great man, a man among men whose accomplishments as president were enormous, including facing down the banks, winning, closing the central bank, and kicking off SIXTY SIX years of prosperity, returning the USA to a normal economic cycle ended only in 1913 by the creation of the Federal Reserve, and it's just been downhill from there. Jackson KNEW, had VISION, was unafraid, was not one of the ELITE and stood up to the elites who already had built a professional political class in Washington of corruption and bribery. Jackson faced them down. And that doesn't even MENTION the enormous everlasting significance of his winning the Battle Of New Orleans. Jackson, too, was a man of the people. Not the elite. They didn't like his TONE, the way he talked, what he said about people because he didn't mince words---sound kinda like someone in politics now who is about to become the Republican nominee for president?
Yes, this was the other outrageously dumb thing that Trump said, that Jackson should have stayed on the twenty. I couldn’t remember what it was.
This is a feint. It’s a head-fake. Obama wants to be on one of the US bills.
People will say, ‘Only presidents belong on US bills’. And they’ll say, Okay, why not Obama?
That’s if they object to Tubman and get called racists.
This is what it’s all about. Remember you heard it here first.
I would leave Jackson on the twenty, he was a President of this Great Nation, then I would put Tubman on another bill as she did a lot to help the slaves...
People need to recognized for what they have done in their lives that built this Country into America...
MLK was another great man, he brought the Black Community and the White Community together, and we were getting better until obamy came along, and now look, we have to start all over again...
Thank you for this information on Tubman, I enjoyed it...
The Battle of New Orleans is meaningless. The peace treaty had already been signed.
Ignore the libtard race baiting Canuck troll down thread
You’re running a fools errand

Did i post something on Tubman? I don't think so, but I could be wrong. I read a piece by a U of Boston on Tubman yesterday. In a nutshell most of the stories they teach about her in schools are mythological with zero sources in real history or the period. No offense to her. Just a fact.
I have a personal code of honor I live by: Never get into a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
US bills should only feature U.S presidents.
You mean like Hamilton and Franklin?
Only U.S presidents
Plus, Frederick Douglass was a featured speaker there in the years surrounding the Civil War.
