Harriet Tubman to replace Andrew Jackson on $20 bill

[Mike_Yates]

Underground railroad figure Harriet Tubman is set to replace Andrew Jackson on the twenty dollar bill.

Andrew Jackson murdered millions of Indians and is seen by some (especially within the native American community) as being a genocidal lunatic on par with Hitler.

At least Harriet Tubman is best remembered for something positive and virtuous.

Really?



Thank Allah you began another thread. Most of us don't peruse the news and certainly didn't see any of the other threads devoted to the same topic.



Maybe you should have gone with George Washington to be replaced on the quarter by an artist's depiction of our alien overlord zaaan gretbirt...

Jackson was a racist democrat while Tubman was a freedom loving republican.

Go figure.
