I thought one had to be a potus to get on there .... unless he was Hamilton who pretty much set up the American monetary and banking system from scratch.

Neither Hamilton or Franklin were presidents.

Ironic that a black president would remove hamilton, who was one of the founders of the new york society for promoting the manumission of slaves, which was instrumental in the abolition of slavery in the state of new york.

I would say its ironic you fell for this and blame Obama for it, but its not. People are used to the stupidity by now

Who picked Lew?

Damn, I forgot Franklin. Okay, he can go. LOL But damned if I can pick a woman. Eleanor Roosevelt would be my choice, but I realize she'd be too political. Which is why I'd limit it to potuses and Hamilton in the first place. I just don't think you can pick a woman on the basis of .... well, it didn't have anything to do with banking or politics but .... it's nice story.

Last I heard Tubman wasn't a founding father.

I think those assholes in DC have lost their fucking minds.

Neither was Andrew Jackson or Abraham Lincoln you dolt.

I still can't find any history on President Mercury either.

Rosa Parks would work.

So would Helen Keller on a more unlimited basis (not confined to an Alabama special issue).

No way. Sorry. Rosa Parks just sat on a bus. Besides, it would divide the nation on racial lines. We need real contributors. Like Nancy Reagan.

Edith Wilson unofficially ran the executive branch for about a year and a half while her bed-ridden husband recovered from a stroke.
An argument could be made for her portrait on a bill.

Hamilton was the father of the centrally-controlled banking-elite American economic system. Thomas Jefferson hated him.

In a 1787 speech during the Constitutional Convention, Hamilton proposed that presidents and senators should be elected for life terms. In addition to a life term, the president would have been given an absolute veto. Three years after the American colonists had defeated the British Empire and the king-for-life monarchy, he proposes to elect another king!

Hamilton sucked anus. That's why he deserves to be on the $10 bill.

I could see Sandra Day O'Connor. Betsy Ross'd be Ok, though I've always sort of thought she might be a bit myth.

Ah yes, I can see it now. In a circle of the signs of the Zodiac. However she's not dead.

I'd be OK with Rosa

 

[OohPooPahDoo]

I'd be OK with Rosa

Tubman freed more slaves than Parks.

I heard a black commentator on NPR saying it was insulting to Tubman's legacy to put her on a bill because a bill was used to shackle her
