The subject was women and what they have done.

But that is why this is PC nonsense.

There is NO DOUBT that Andrew Jackson--love him or hate him--did a LOT for this young nation as its 7th president.

Tubman simply did not do as much. That is simply a fact.

its a comparison between those two because one is replacing the other.

No.
It is in preparation for the 100th anniversary of women's right to vote.
That is why the target launch is 2020.
I gotta say, your opinion of women is shining bright on this thread.
There has been talk of changing the pictures on money for a long time.
This isn't new.
And yes, Harriet Tubman did a lot of good.
It isn't about who did more during that time.
It's about whIch woman will be honored for her achievements.
So get that male chauvinistic stick out of your butt.
???? Tubman was not involve in getting women the right to vote. If that is the issue here--women like Susan B. Anthony would have been a much better choice.

However, your entire premise is BS. It is absolutely a comparison--and there is none. Jackson is many times more deserving, and has been since he appeared on the bill.
I know Tubman had nothing to do with women's right to vote.
You are dense.
Susan B. Anthony has a coin already.
So does Sacajawea.
They are changing all the money.
Elenor Roosevelt and Martin Luther King Jr are going to be on other bills.

You brought it up and tied them together--I'm not the dense one.

Yes. I did. Because I watched the news today and saw the report they gave.

They want to get the women on the money in time with the 100th anniversary of women gaining the right to vote.

And although you can not possibly see it through you chauvinistic eyes, Tubman may have been years before women could vote.

But she did have a part in it eventually coming to pass.

She didn't know it at the time, but she was a starting ember in that fire.
