Outrageous And Uncalled For: Harriet Tubman Wins Vote For Possible Face On $20 Bill

[Luddly Neddite]

Those that contributed the most to the country should have precedent if Jackson is to be replaced. Along those lines, the most obvious should be Reagan or the forgotten but great Polk, but then they're white men. Besides, why are they picking on Jackson when Alexander Hamilton, a white man, is on the $10 bill?

Oh, he is no longer PC because of Indians I guess.

Reagan? I would think he would do better on the higher denominations. Since the debt he built was in the higher numbers.

Do we have a trillionS dollar bill?

 

[WinterBorn]

LMAO!! Poor Stevie. His brand of lunacy is losing by leaps and bounds.

What does it matter who is on the $20 bill? But I think we are long over due for some face that reflects the nation.

A tired crack whore on food stamps may be a bit much, if you get my drift.

I didn't realize there were any crackwhores nominated. Seems to me those women were all accomplished and famous in their own rights.

You were the one who said "reflects the nation". Old famous and accomplished white men are overly represented, so we can go in the opposite direction, for balance. Wadda you think?

I think the nominees are all good ones.

What's wrong with keeping Jackson? He whipped the British (Who torched the White House) at New Orleans and kept this nation from falling in the hands of a foreign sovereignty. In essence, he preserved our freedoms. He is a patriotic iconic figure to look up to. Those women belong on a stamp or something else.

They belong on the $20 bill. If you disagree, feel free to leave (as you are so fond of telling others).

So does this mean it will only be worth $15.40 or $12.00?

At your age you shouldn't be smoking cigars. It might even grow, but I doubt it. That was a seriously juvenile post.

Definitely need to get all the minorities into the act.

There are way more Mexicans in the country than Negroes...many actually legal citizens of this country.
Probably need to dig up a picture of Duncan Renaldo or Leo Carillo to put on the $5 and $10 bills.
And then there are all those dead Mexicans in Texas from the Alamo days. Or maybe it should be Katy Jurado or Selena, the dead Mexican singer of the '90s. Kill two birds with one stone. Hey! BOTH FEMALES.

Aww shit! Then there are all those Chinese/Japanese citizens that FDR imprisoned during WWII. What about them? How about Bruce Lee on the $50 bill? Or Yo-Yo-Ma? On the $100 bill? Maybe it could be Tiger Wood...who is listed as Asian here. The 130 Most Inspiring Asian Americans of All Time Asian American Personalities GOLDSEA

Yeah...that's the ticket.

from now on, lets all hang on to our 20.00 bills with tito jacksons face (Tito, Right?) and when we go shopping or to the bank, and the teller gives us our money, demand that we want the original tito jackson bills that have been around since the beginning of time !!!

This is down right insanity. It boils down between her, Eleanor Roosevelt, Rosa Parks or some Cherokee squaw named Wilma Mankiller, all women. This is a slap in the face to Andrew Jackson. He saved this nations sovereignty from being lost at the Battle of New Orleans. This shows once again how political correctness is ruining this nation.

LA Times

i hope then that all americans boycott the 20.00 bill and just use 10's. I will!

That'll teach them!! It's not like Natives use them the way they are anyway...

 

[Meathead]

Maybe it would be better, and more honest, if we could but them on some kind of token. That would certainly be correct in more than one way.

Harriet Tubman ffs!

 

[Rexx Taylor]

next thing, they will put elizabeth warren on the 1/32nd of a dollar bill.

LOL! How about a multicolored half dollar bill with guess who. I mean as some idiot said, we should reflect America.

LMAO!! You decide to attempt an insult about my cigar smoking in my pic, and you call MY post juvenile?

Andrew Jackson founded the shameful democratic party and the Trail of Tears. The only place his face belongs is on toilet paper.

 

[Rexx Taylor]

lets see, one dollar bill:Washington two dollar billI forgot) three dollar bill: Ubama, five is lincoln, ten is Bill Clinton? and does that mean Hillary will be on the 20?

It was not an insult. It was an observation of overcompensation. Your post and it's insipidness was an insult. but then you did it to yourself.

In essence, he preserved our freedoms. He is a patriotic iconic figure to look up to. Those women belong on a stamp or something else.

According to the history books, that battle may have been needless. The Treaty of Ghent, which ended the War of 1812, was signed on the very same day the New Orleans battle began. As heroic as Jackson might have been, he did NOT keep his nation from "falling into the hands of a foreign sovereignty". The British couldn't afford to keep a war going in 2 paces at the same time and the French were a lot more of a problem. They gave up all claim to America at that point.

On the other hand, what did the heroic Jackson do following his election? Wasn't he personally responsible for breaking nearly every treaty signed with Natives? Didn't he begin the Trail of Tears and drive the Natives off their ancestral lands and into worthless desert and certain poverty? Didn't he begin the country's very 1st welfare system (having food delivered to the reservations where the Natives could no longer hunt or grow their own food), however scant and irregular it was? THIS is a guy worthy of the honor of being pictured on a US banknote?

I know that honest facts seem to get in the way of our thinking sometimes, so ignore this if you feel in any way threatened.

Bullshit. There was a reason he was chosen. All good reasons.

Besides, he started the democratic party - one of the gravest stains on America.

To hell with the injuns and YES HE IS worthy of being on a banknote. It is why he's there in the first place.

A). The Battle of New Orleans was won after the the War of 1812 was officially over.

B). Andrew Jackson was against paper money.
