This is a decent article worth reading. I am Choctaw. We helped “Old Hickory” at the Battle of New Orleans, and earlier in the Creek and British War. We’ve hated Jackson sine he and his Blue Coats forced us off our well cultivated lands for his Democrat slave owning buddies in 1830.
But at the end of the day, he’s dead. He’s an historic figure. Gee, just leave him on the $20.00 bill. He was both good and bad, but a man of his times who did in fact change our Nation.
That’s just my opinion.

Generally, if you do a complete reading of all the Presidents of the 1800s....most all end up with a fair amount of negative criticism (even Lincoln).
The issue I see is that some decision decades ago should have been made to limit a figure’s appearance on currency to forty/sixty years, and then evolve onto the next couple of characters to recognize. We are replacing the whole make-up of bills now every decade, with new technology being built-in to prevent counterfeit situations. We might as well go and start to recognize figures from the 1920s to today.
