They should compromise and put Jesse Jackson on the $20 bill.
Sick and tired of other people puttin; ordinary folks in a position that ... if we want to stop something, it'll be millions of dollars, lawyers and years away from .. "just leave our history alone" ! ! !
Just another NR article...

Yes, because if anything should define American culture, this is where you should start.
Gee, I remember the shootings and the carjacking this thug culture brought. Oh yeah, and lots of dead, injured and victims of other crimes.
The sheer idiocy these days, thanks in large part to the MSM and Hollywood jumping on board.
All while the nation is being gutted ............
“and Treasury will make other changes including “putting leaders of the women’s suffrage movement on the back of the $10 bill, and incorporating civil-rights era leaders and other important moments in American history into the $5 bill”
Translation: We are going to politicize handbills and use them as Leftist leaflets.
God help us.
Jackson was also an opponent of the Central Bank and would not want to be on a Federal Reserve Note.
If Jackson had lost in New Orleans the US would not be a global superpower today and might not exist.
In an era before trains and cars, control of the Mississippi meant the ability to put an economic chokehold on a fledgling country.
Extreme radical leftwing publications like National Review should be ignored on all topics.
“...that honor should rightly belong to Harriet Beecher Stowe, author of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, the most important of all American novels.”
Seriously? I have nothing against Stowe, but writing a book is nothing like risking your life to save others. Also, I can think of many other American women who are, arguably, more influential than Stowe. Besides, Tubman was a “gun-touting Republican” as I saw someone say. It works for me. At least it’s not Eleanor Roosevelt, Margret Sanger, or, heaven forfend, Hillary Clinton.
Personally, I think all faces featured on the dollar bills should be deceased presidents. That narrows the field a lot but still provides room for people like Reagan, Lincoln, FDR and Wilson to be placed on dollar bills.
After Obama dies, he should go on the $3 bill.
so a president and hero is being moved to the back of the bus and replaced by a criminal, fugitive and hero.
can only guess why her portrait is so much larger than those on other denominations.
“Like her assistance to John Brown” the MURDERER.
Turning the the paper certificates visually into TOILET paper.
Personally, I find speciesism offensive. Why have only humans on our paper money? I personally favor reptiles. We could be saying “It’s all about the Musk Turtles” if we were more open-minded.
The country we live in now is most certainly not the country created by the great men of our history. It is today something else altogether. Might as well have “truth in advertising” on the swiftly-becoming-valueless currency issued by the despotic oligarchy that rules us today.
Don’t worry. I am too busy weeping for the destruction of the country.
What? I don't know how he can justify this end conclusion. Both George Washington and Abe Lincoln were just as, if not more, controversial (and hated by many) in their own time.
“Tubman’s life is not without its own controversies, like her assistance to John Brown in advance of the Harper’s Ferry raid that ended with Brown being hanged for treason (the justification of Brown’s actions is one of the great ethical dilemmas in American history: How far exactly should one go to stop something as bad as slavery?).”
“How far exactly should one go...?”
“ethical dilemmas”??
That is a new one for me.
John Brown’s goal was to capture arms and provoke a slave insurrection/race war.
And this fool seems unperturbed by it.
The GOPe is again practicing preemptive surrender through their mouthpiece NRO. How bad do they hate America?
This decision is going to survive until November and then it will quietly die.
