Opra?
Nice touch with the ‘rainbow’ effect.
Soviet Red Hampshire just re-elected this towering intellect...now on to the Presidential primaries...yahoo!
No. You don’t put Barack on the 8 dollar bill. He goes on the 3 dollar bill, as in queer as a 3 dollar bill.
I’d rather see Kate Upton on the 20 dollar bill.
During Reagan’s term, Iran counterfeited the US dollar. Putting women on our currency would stop that! :)
I think they do just fine on dollar coins.
Why does any woman deserve to be the $20?
Maybe they could do a new $20 that has both Jackson and his wife on it. Of course she was never First Lady--she died between when Jackson won the election and when he was inaugurated.
Another idea would be to replace the men on the different denominations with a woman associated with them--Sally Fairfax on the $1 bill, Sally Hemings on the $2 bill, Ann Rutledge on the $5 bill (if there is any likeness of her preserved), one of Hamilton's married lovers (I think one of them was a Mrs. Reynolds) on the $10, Lucy Mercer on the dime, etc.
So what you are saying is that all the women you are nominating, is solely because of the men they are associated with.
IE because they were in these mens’ shadows. Because that’s the primary reasons their names are even known.
Of course, the country could elect someone next year whose name would not be known if not for her husband. Or perhaps she would be known as a loud-mouth Congresswoman elected from a heavily Democratic district in the Chicago area.
