I Need Like Ten.....!

US10dollarbill-Series 2004A.jpg
The U.S. Treasury announced a new design for the $10 bill. The bill will feature a woman.

Who will get blamed now that the conservatives found out this bit of historical news?

A. Barack Obama
B. Hillary Clinton
C. Michelle Obama
D. Women's Rights Groups
E. Liberals
F. All of These Above

Guess who's on the $10 American bill?

Okay, I give you a hint..... He was the first U.S. Treasury Secretary and a statesman. He was assassinated in a duel. He was a founding member of this great country.

Give up.

Okay, his name is Alexander Hamilton. He's not a president. He and founding father Benjamin Franklin are on American currency. Hamilton and Franklin are not presidents. But they are honored respectively for their achievements.

Benjamin Franklin is on the $100 American bill. That is the highest domination to exist. There are rare higher domination bills. But the United States mandates that no amount shall exceed $100.

Alexander Hamilton is on the $10 American bill.

When the year 2020 comes, the U.S. Treasury will be kicking him to the curb.

It was announced by current U.S. Secretary Jack Lew that a woman would be featured on a redesigned ten-dollar bill by 2020. The Department of Treasury is seeking the public's input on whom should appear on the new bill.

So who's gonna get the prize?

My top choices for nomination.

1. Michelle Obama (living)
2. Nancy Reagan (living)
3. Hillary Clinton (living)
4. Harriet Tubman
5. Susan B. Anthony
6. Jacqueline Kennedy
7. Betsy Ross
8. Martha Washington
9. Mary Todd Lincoln
10. Shirley Chisolm
11. Claudia Alta Taylor "Lady Bird" Johnson
12. Coretta Scott King
13. Rosa Parks
14. Elizabeth Cady Stanton
15. Sacagawea

So your thoughts on this?

Send it to me and S. Baldwin.
