FULL TITLE: 'Women on 20s' to Ask President Obama to Put One of These 4 Women on $20 Bill

A woman could soon be the new face of the U.S. $20 bill.

The nonprofit campaign "Women on 20s" allowed voters to choose three of 15 women candidates for the $20 bill, and now it's down to the "Final Four," and you can vote for the ultimate winner. The candidates are Eleanor Roosevelt, Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks and Wilma Mankiller.

How about the Whore of Babalon? At least it would be fitting for this era in the USA.

I was thinking about this issue last night as I was withdrawing money from my bank’s ATM. And, of course, my bank only dispenses cash in multiples of $20.

What’s wrong with what we are using now? It’s just paper money that eventually wears out and is destroyed. We have way more important issues going on than worrying about spending more money to put some woman’s face on a $20 bill. Good grief.

1. Eleanor Roosevelt, First Lady
(rumored to have had an affair with another woman. political opportunist. socialist)

2. Harriet Tubman, Abolitionist
(intended as insult to current person on $20, essentially states “if she had been...” argument. IOW another vote Hillary mind game.)

3. Rosa Parks, Civil Rights Activist
(beside her one deed, she worked as secretary for NAACP. These days not exactly an asset except as a reminder to specific democrat low information voters to vote for hitlary)

4. Wilma Mankiller, Cherokee Nation Leader
(not even worthy of being on this list. Her sole claim is she was “woman leader” and another push to vote for Hillary. If anything this one is a self promoting ego driven “ugly woman” right in line with Hillary.)

This is just a ploy to push for Hillary. Why not melt all millions of one dollar coins and put them on that and see how well they do...

And the $20 bill fades into obscurity as have the silver dollars minted after the Morgans.

No joke. Liberals think Wilma Mankiller is greater just for being an American Indian, than Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, Adams, or Madison are with all of their supreme attributes and accomplishments.

Relativism rules the day with liberals. Liberalism is a mental disorder, as Michael Savage recognized. And they are growing by leaps and bounds.

We are doomed.

"Drag a bill through a trailer park, you'll never know what you'll find" (James Carville)

The face of money-tree climber, con-artist Hillary Clinton, holder of the record for being in the center of the most dirty, rotten scandals and fraudulent money scams in U.S. history.....belongs on counterfeit $2 bills.

Please, someone tell me when we, as a Country, have ever replaced the image on any of our currency. It seems once a denomination gets a particular image that should be ‘set in stone.’

If they put one of those ding-bats on a $20 bill I will deal only in 5’s & 10’s.

the women pushing this are with the Hillary for president campaign. This is all for Hillary Clinton’s rebranding effort to maker her look “reasonable”.

she wants to be the first woman president. (just like Jessie Jackson wanted)
