When you put dumb people in charge, this is what happens.

Erasing US history and replacing it with PC pseudo-history, one bill and one book page at a time...

What's next? Replacing George Washington on the $1 bill with Trayvon Martin?

[SkyDancer]

Interesting how different generations saw their previous ones or way in the past.

Harriet Nelson would be a better choice. Standing for American motherhood, the 1950’s, and clean entertainment.

Jackson was the Democrat who gave us the Trail of Tears. I have no problem offloading him from currency

Good work fighting the PC Left's battles for them.

It's amazing how many conservatives have internalized politically correct modes of thinking and the Left's narrative of history. You don't remember Jackson as the reason Florida is part of the US or as the hero of the Battle of New Orleans. No sir, he's just a "racist dead white man."

With that type of thinking among conservatives, is it any wonder that the Left is winning (or rather has won) every cultural battle?

The Play Hamilton is Imam Obama’s favorite. He will leave Hamilton alone.

"Hamilton" is New York and D.C.'s favorite. The $10 bill will remain with Hamilton for that reason alone.

Quick, someone needs to get to work writing rap musicals about Washington, Lincoln, Jackson, Grant, and Franklin before they get replaced by feminist, black, or chicano icons.

A Jacksonian democrat would not recognize the party today. Jackson was one of the last real men to hold the office.
He shot men in duels and took crap off no one.

Yesterday’s Democrats are nothing like today’s Socioeconomic Fascist Democrats.

JFK used to be strong on defense and understood economics.

LBJ started the downhill slide.

[rockrr]

I saw that too.

[AlanGreenSpam]

WTF??

Furthermore, if you’re going to choose a black woman, how about someone we’ve actually HEARD of, like Rosa Parks?

How pathetic.

[madison10]

That photo is ugly. Couldn’t they find a better one? or maybe Sojourner Truth?

[madison10]

That’s a better photo of her.

Bloody, Bloody Andrew Jackson didn't do Andy any good.

I suspect from the title that it wasn't done with the kind of love that Hamilton was.

For Franklin and Jefferson, there's still 1776.

Why not go “all the way” with, Anita Hill? /S
Nope, not even with yours! ;^}
