Harriet Tubman to be face of $20 bill

Posted by | April 20, 2016 13:07 | Filed under: Top Stories


That’s it for Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Wednesday will announce plans to both keep Alexander Hamilton on the front of the $10 bill and to knock Andrew Jackson off the front of the $20 in favor of Harriet Tubman, sources tell POLITICO.

Lew is expected to roll out a set of changes that also include 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.

    I can hear the outrage from the right…. “first our White house, and now our white money”..
    “If elected, I will take our twenty dollar bill back in 2016~!

    Very cool. The bad news is it won’t be issued ’till around 2030.

    • whatthe46 April 20th, 2016 at 14:27

      really? why?

      • Dammitjim April 20th, 2016 at 14:53

        Has to do with design/security…all that stuff.

        • whatthe46 April 20th, 2016 at 16:54

          I hope I’m around to see it.

    • Lyndia April 21st, 2016 at 02:37

      2020, not 2030.

    Wow…just wow…I expected a woman, but a woman of color seemed too much to hope for…well done.

    • StoneyCurtisll April 20th, 2016 at 20:14

      It’s like icing on the cake…:)

  6. Hirightnow April 20th, 2016 at 17:46

    Wait…does this mean that, since Ms. Tubman was a woman, the $20 will only be worth 79% of face value? Or will it be worse, since it’s a woman of color?

  7. DogsRgoodpeople April 20th, 2016 at 18:26

    add Harriet Tubman to the 20
    keep Hamilton on the 10
    Andrew Jackson the genocidal maniac gone.
    well done

    How stupid is ben Carson..(not that he matters anymore)..Look at what Carson said today about Harriet Tubman,…..

    • whatthe46 April 20th, 2016 at 21:25

      there’s a video on FON of this ass and i didn’t watch it there. no way will i be able to stomach listening to stupid, it’s hard enough to read it.

    • edsfarm April 20th, 2016 at 22:28

      Smart man, What Carson is saying is it doesn’t really matter. Why replace the head on the bill. Make a $2, $200 or $2000 dollar bill. WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE!!! This is why the country is in trouble. We keep worry about all the political correctness nonsense. Let’s worry about the national debt and jobs instead of the $20 bill and the Washington Redskins!!!

      • whatthe46 April 20th, 2016 at 22:38

        why are you all pissy that it’s on a 20? why does it matter to carson that it’s on a 20? regardless of which denomination she was put on, you and your racist ilk and uncle benny would still be pitching a bitch fit.

        • edsfarm April 21st, 2016 at 00:22

          I’m not racist but let’s not forget about American culture. Let’s keep our culture and add to it. What’s next, George Washington? (He’s on the dollar bill in case you didn’t know.), being replaced by George Washington Carver. (He created the peanut) in case you didn’t know.

          • whatthe46 April 21st, 2016 at 01:23

            in case you didn’t know, John Peake Knight is credited with inventing the original traffic light in 1868. there are plenty of black, some once slaves who were inventors. and Carver didn’t invent the damn peanut, he created more than 300 uses for peanuts. Thomas Jefferson is on the 2 dollar bill, which isn’t really in circulation anymore. in case you didn’t know any of the above.

        Have you seen the most recent jobs report, 4.9% (near full employment).
        And you think…..
        “This is why the country is in trouble. We keep worry about all the political correctness nonsense”…(your words)
        I’m gonna guess you are a Trump supporter…

    All over the south red neck brains are exploding (they are, as a rule very small explosions and can be mistaken for burps )

      I always confuse it with farts…..oops there goes another one….

              Sorry, even put a smile at tha end, was a joke Hun.

                  Here’s another one.
                  .
                  Never say sorry, when my mom would do that dad would tell her ” I didn’t want a character reference, I wanted an apology”, she would always hit him, but he just couldn’t resist.
                  .

    She was a spy for the north in the civil war she helped slaves escape bondage and she fought for women’s rights. Jackson owned slaves he was the instigator of the trail of tears that killed thousands of Indians. carson doesn’t think she deserves to be on the 20 but Jackson does because he balanced the budget. that clown gives the term uncle tom a bad name.
