Ok you’re right
“ Subliminally maintaining the fiction that conservatives are incredibly racist...”
Yep. Although there is at least one on the thread, but I assume (for the moment) it’s out of ignorance.
He still founded the Democrat party, which has been nothing more than a criminal organization since it’s founding.
Its
Replacing a Democrat with a Republican. Oh the irony
I’m on Hwy 11 all the time. Christiansburg to Pulaski.
I’m in favor of replacing the slave-abusing Jackson who founded the Democrat party with Tubman, a radical, gun-toting, deeply religious, Republican insurgent.
_____________________________________________________
Andrew Jackson has about as much to do with the modern Democrat Party as I do. And substituting Jackson with Tubman is nothing more than a bow down to the critical race theory rabble-rousers.
Tubman can be given her own currency to grace, but this for this move to be celebrated by “Conservatives” shows just how short-sighted (and capable of mental gymnastics) the political Right can be.
No wonder we can’t win elections and hold power for any decent period of time, we don’t even know how to help ourselves.
“Give her one of her own.
Three dollar bill.”
That’s reserved for Obama!
Pandering to what they perceive to be their base. Put black folks on the money and everything will be just fine.
I’ve heard this type of article “Yokels in the Mist”. Don’t scare the native performing his pickup truck dominance display. Try to respond to his call with the universal sign of friendship: “Can I get me a huntin’ license here?” It’s like anything west of the Hudon or Potomac are Terra Incognita to them.
Jackson should stay on the front of the $20.
If Tubman belongs on the $20, then she can be on the back.
Removing an American President, for an obscure member of the underground railroad is ridiculous.
This was an Obama Treasury Department proposal BTW.
Martinsburg is a pit unless you like being carjacked at Home Depot. The people I know in the panhandle make the extra time to shop at Leesburg or Winchester. Martinsburg is like little Baltimore.
Tubman was an Angela Davis type of coward who was all in when it came to ‘conspiring’ to raid the Harpers Ferry armory but who was nowhere to be found when the murderous John Brown and his cronies were taken under fire by Colonel Lee and a few Marines. If the present day race hustling commies want to desecrate our currency with the image of a black terrorist - put Nat Turner’s image on an alternate sawbuck. He wasn’t a coward, not by any stretch. Put a nice portrait of the cowardly terrorist Tubman in the national gallery or some such.
I don’t care about the $20 bill. I do care about fair elections, free speech, and the constitution. Pick the right hills to die on, fighting against putting a black woman’s picture on money, which will 100% degenerate into a brawl over wither the right is a bunch of racist woman haters, isn’t the one.
***...replace the image of Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with Harriet Tubman. ***
And what have they got against Jackson? He hated the British, saved New Orleans from invasion, after the war of 1812 was over. News traveled slow in those days.
Drove out the South Eastern slave owning tribes to Oklahoma, in violation of the SCOTUS ruling, where the tribes later had to put down slave rebellions.

Nothing against Harriet Tubman, but did she really do enough to merit being on our money? I’m sure if you look there are others who did the same on the Underground Railroad. Why no mention of them?
Hey, I like that! You realize about twenty years ago there was an anti-handgun attempt to show Tubman carrying a rifle when she always carried a revolver.
It is a gross perversion of the 1st Amendment. It's known as the "diner story" by journolists, and it's dread for every one of them. They were everywhere in 2016.
In a "diner story", NPR chief f@g Ari Shapiro said he had to visit a "dive bar" in Toledo to find Trump voters who hated immigrants (and of course chose a Trump woman to denigrate):
SHAPIRO: We met Sharon Ostrowski at a dive bar called Lil Sheba.SHARON OSTROWSKI: The only thing that bothers me is why we got to change the way we live to suit other people that come to our country. We shouldn't have to give up our things we like to suit - if they're coming here, they need to adapt to our way. You know, we can't have nativity scenes - I mean, all that stuff. They get offended. Well, then what are you in our country for?
Salena Zito is a wonderful chronicler of non-coastal, non-celebrity Americans. I always love her articles.
The image on that proposed bill looks like Disney Studios or Marvel Comics did it. She was an intelligent, serious-minded, tough cookie who led a life of great hardship and danger with the courage of a soldier, and her actual face is a testament.
Here she was as a young woman:
And as a very old woman:
