Carson first argued that Andrew Jackson was an incredible and admirable US president. There has been talk recently of replacing Jackson, whose picture resides on the $20 bill, with Harriet Tubman. As if it’s not bad enough that Carson is defending a president who is known to have been a supporter of both slavery and the deportation of Cherokees on the Trail of Tears, he went on to say that Harriet Tubman does not belong on the $20 bill in place of Jackson. He then suggested that perhaps she could have a place on the $2 bill. The $2 bill was last issued in 2003. Has Carson been napping for the last 13 years and missed that? http://tinyurl.com/hz456oj - - - The more I hear from the Republican wannabes and former wannabes, the more I fear for the future of this country. What the hell is the matter with Carson? And Ted Cruz and Bobby Jindal sound even crazier. Carson comes across like a male Sarah Palin. I still use $2 bills for stuff. The bank will sell you all you want. I always give the pizza guy a couple. The bank has them in brand new packs of $200. I suppose if you were going put a woman on a two, you should replace Jefferson with Sally Hemings. http://gfretwell.com/ftp/2%20dollar%20bills.jpg Paper money needs presidents. Otherwise the statement "I want lots of portraits of dead presidents" dies an ignoble death. |
