Notorious slaver Andrew Jackson to be removed from the $20 bill and replaced by a prominent woman

There are no sufficiently noteworthy women in American History. England yes, but in US History? No. Not even close.

Jeannette Rankin, first woman elected to and served in the US Congress, before women were even given the right to vote on a Federal basis. She represented Montana, a state which had granted full suffrage to adult females several years earlier.

She was a notorious pacifist, though, voting against entry into both the First and Second World Wars. This may or may not be looked upon as some kind of high moral principle.

Oh yeah? How about Anna Schwartz, Milton Friedman's co-author on the seminal A Monetary History of the United States, 1867–1960 and -- according to even Paul Krugman no less -- one of the world's greatest monetary scholars.

Jackson was the first Demoncrat to be elected President. He represents everything that the Demoncrat party stands for especially the slavery part for the Demoncrars since LBJ have been working towards enslaving the entire nation through overwhelming “free lunch” debt.
