The Repubs should compromise. They should tell the Dems that if they vote to have Reagan on the 50, that they will in turn vote to have Bill Clinton on the $3 bill.

Being the proud Southerner & Confederate supporter that I am, I would love to see Reagan replace Grant on the $50 bill. But Reagan was NOT a strong critic of big government. He may have talked the talk, but he certainly didn’t walk the walk. Far from it!

Grant was a lousy President who ran a corrupt Administration.
Personally, I’d like to Polk’s face on some currency.
But then, Reagan was a great President also.
Either one would be good.
Or even Teddy Roosevelt.

Proposal would put Ronald Reagan's face on the $50 bill Would be even better on the $100 bill. This way all those "Learjet liberals" and lefties get to see and handle it more.

Grant was a lousy President who ran a corrupt Administration. Amen to that - he never deserved to be on the $50 in the first place. I'd replace him in an instant.

“Our currency ought to be something that unites us,” said Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Sherman Oaks).
Do you get the feeling that Rep. Brad Sherman might just drive over and piss on his grave if he thought he could get away with it?

Id vote to add him to Mt. RushmoreThe rock left is unstable for anymore faces.
To: Palter
The way things are going, perhaps he should be put on a $5,000 bill.

Grant makes every body's list somewhere of 10 worst presidents, although the competition has gotten rather stiff in the last two decades.
But he was a great general and shared Lincoln's magnanimity to the south once the war was over. He just lacked the moral stature and political leadership skills to follow through.

re: Obama could adorn foodstamps. Dem constituents see plenty of those.
I am really surprised that Obama has not already done that. He has attached his name to many programs that have never included the president's name, such as the Obama Mortgage Relief Plan, the Obama Mortgage Plan, the Obama Mom's Back to School Plan, Obama’s Mortgage Modification Plan. After all, as president Obama does have a special stash of money that he can dole out to people.

Not the $50, the $20. Jackson’s banking policies and Indian deportations are both a blot on American history. He shouldn’t be honored with a place on our money.

Actually, I’d rather see Reagan on the $ 20.00 bill.
It is much more commonly used than the $ 50 bill, and we can get rid of that horrid picture of Andrew Jackson, who looks like he escaped from an insane asylum.
I also want to see the Dems heads explode.
The victor over Communism will be opposed by the new Communist Party.
