The liberals liked the idea of an ethnic single mom on our coins.

Actually Sacagawea was married to the French Canadian fur trader Charbonneau who also went on the Lewis & Clark Eexpedition. She was a valuable translator and negotiator with possible hostile tribes during the trek westward.

I know that and you know that. The people don't know that. The image appears to be of a single mom, and that is what the libs wanted.
