IMHO RR should be on the $1,000 bill.
Look to the future. The $1,000 bill of the future will be the $100 bill of today. The $1,000 bill is a more dignified place for a such a superb President.
We will work on Rushmore later.

Dolllar coin.
His likeness should grace every dollar coin minted from now until eternity.

Then why do we have FDR on the dimes? His policies remain controversial!
I love Reagan and believe him one of the great and important figures of our history, but replacing Grant?! Grant is already unappreciated and it really ticks me off a Republican and any conservatives would support disrespecting Grant, who has that measly honor and is forgotten otherwise, and want to push this. Grant is a phenomenal man and gave so much at one of the most important times in this nation’s history. I could see replacing FDR, but what is wrong with people in this? Taking it too far.
I don’t think Reagan himself would even go for the idea.
The fifty works for me. I use fifties all the time
The fifty is the new twenty
Heck, I am going nuts over this and I’m an admirer of Reagan, but I am also an avid admirer of Grant and I find this proposterous to just throw Grant off the one honor he actually gets and is forgotten otherwise! This makes me angry.
Grant was more than a President, ZULU. And that is the point because his his Civil War service is the sacrifice he gave to this Union and putting an end to it. His problem with the presidency is that he put his trust in bad people who used him and did bad things that stained his presidency. He was a remarkable man. So knock off the trash talk because he is deserving of more honors and this is all he is given.
Say Amen to the man who saw that the great Civil War came to an end. I am so furious at posters like you who seek to belittle such an important figure who gave so damn much to this country.
He wouldn’t. I think outside of being humble he’d be taken aback people would like to discard Grant like that.
Interesting you are both a Grant and Bush fan.
I’m not “trashing Grant”. I never said anything negative about his military service.
I just said he was a lousy President and gave a few suggestions for a better choice.
I don’t know of ANYONE who would defend Grant’s performance as President, except maybe a Bushbot or two.
Would you put Barney’s face on the front or rear of the bill, however? >_>
Progressive heads will explode!
Had he executive ordered the quaratine of all active male homosexuals in the early 80's, AIDS would be an African footnote in the medical journals.
We have AIDS victims who come here seeking political asylum.
Would you put Barneys face on the front or rear of the bill, however? >_>
Ideally, you would be able to fold the bill and watch him put his head up his ass...which woud put him in both his favorite and most natural position. He could then be used both coming and going, if you know what I mean.
Or put Reagan on the trillion dollar bill, we'll be printing those pretty soon.
ROTFL :P
