Andrew Jackson's achievements: Revolutionary war veteran, hero of the War of 1812, saving the union from secession with the tariff compromise... the list continues.
Who gets honored on the $20? Harriet Tubman, because we need "women and minorities" on our currency. If that isn't one of the worst cases of posthumous affirmative action at work, I don't know what is.
And you can’t turn this back.
But I only use cash maybe twice a month now.
it will go to 0 soon.
Obama will leave nothing left by the end of his 270 days.
I don’t mind changing the portraits on our currency. Nothing is set in stone. Many other countries use their currency to honor artists and monuments so I don’t think we need to have presidents, politicians or Founding Fathers on our currency. The only danger, to me, is the embarrassment that comes when you have political correctness run amok. If they go too far in finding transgender lesbian Marxists to put on the currency, its going to be yet another sign of decline. But putting Tubman on doesn’t bother me much.
So sick of this admin.
Actually, I am pleased to see Harriet Tubman on the bill.
I will then use that picture as a conversation starter on Christ, on the Republican Party, on the 2nd Amendment, or on self-sacrifice; as the need fits.
There will be a lot of liberals who will rue the day her picture was put on the twenty.
I especially like the line of removing the founder of the Democratic Party and replacing him with a gun owning, Christian, member of the Republican Party.
...Which seems somewhat undermined by his forced removal of Cherokee and other Indian tribes, many of whom owned and had clear title to their lands, from the southeast to the west along "The Trail of Tears". Frontiersman David Crockett, who earlier admired Jackson, came to hate him for it.
Yet another obama-era absurdity.
We’ve been through the looking glass for so long, some folks actually take it all as in some peculiar way ‘normal.’
I don’t have a problem with Tubman herself...I have a problem with the pandering aspect of this.
This thing needs a vagina, this thing needs someone black or hispanic, this other one needs a GLBTXQZ or whatever.
THAT aspect of it really rubs me the wrong way.
To be honest (though the situation is a bit different) there is a US Navy destroyer to be named after Carl Levin. Even though I think there are a lot more deserving people than Tubman, I would be less angry if they even named the destroyer after her than Levin.
Hey, if we start telling people that we support Tubman because she was a christian, gun toting Republican, they will drop her like hot iron.
Allowing Jackson to go onto the $5.
So the new $5 bill will become known as the Jackson Five.

Hopefully the next president will stop this race based attack on our history.
But there is no doubt we can expect more idiocy from Obama between now and January.
Everything is does is transparently motivated by his primary life influences and interests:
1. - Racial hate and bitterness
2. - Fidelity to Islam
3. - Dope smoking and cocaine snorting
4. - Homosexual mentors and affairs
5. - Socialism
6. - Hate and resentment for white American culture
7. - Anarchy
He stirs up black hate.
He advances Islam at every opportunity.
He whines about unfair prison sentences for drug dealers and commutes their prison terms.
He has pushed the homosexual agenda on America since he assumed the presidency.
He attacks capitalism and business while scheming to redistribute wealth.
He doesn’t hide his dislike for “Bitter Clingers”, patriots, Christians, American history and tradition.
He is a tyrant, ignoring law and the constitution, and seizing power like Lenin, Stalin or Mao Tse-tung.
We will be fortunate if he actually leaves the White House when his elected term is over.
I am glad he is gone from our currency! He dishonored our nation by murdering thousands of people of "The Five Civilized Tribes" on "The Trail of Tears."
Just as satisfying is that it strikes down the founder of the Democrat party.

Not sure if Andrew Jackson should be called the greatest soldier-statesman after Washington. The battle of New Orleans was important, but does it compare to Grant's victories in the Civil War or to Eisenhower's generalship in WWII? To be sure, Grant wasn't such a great President. Eisenhower might be ranked up there among the great Presidents if only he had been a Democrat.
Just write what you want on the new bill and let it circulate.
Harriet Tubman was a criminal, a felon, with thousands of counts of criminal action
FWIW, President William V. S. Tubman is on the Liberian $20 bill. I'd post a picture, but that would be racist.
