The title says it all!

The Treasury Department is planning on dumping alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill. He's been on the $10 bill since 1929, but will be replaced with a woman. The question is who? It probably won't be Pocahontas, Susan B Anthony, or Sacagawea, since their imagined likenesses have already graced our coins.

Wymins' groups top choice is Harriett Tubman to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill, but they haven't picked one yet for the $10 bill. How about Caitlyn Jenner ???

If current trends affect the choice, it will probably be a black trans-les ... a transsexual who got the operation and became a lesbian.
The interesting thing abiout a trans-les is that the person was a man ... became a woman ... and still likes girls.

I think they should put Hillery on there, of course she'd have to be dead first.

I think putting politicians on the money should be done away with , how about the statue of liberty on the 10

or take canadas lead and put birds and animals on the currency how about a buffalo

How about some real War heroes like the ones that fought and died for our freedom.

Without them we wouldn't have a 10 or 20 dollar bill.

Without them we wouldn't be having this conversation.

What about bringing back the achievements on money? SpaceX would be a modern equivalent.

I could care less who they put on a bill, but why not a woman? Artists? Nobel Prize winners?

I don't mean to throw a bucket of water on all the fun but, they're not going to replace Hamilton, just add a woman. So, it will be Alexander and his squeeze...

We only get birds and animals on the back. We still have some of our sleeziest politicians on the front, except for our $20 which still has our dear darling the queen (of a totally separate country since 1981).

Who cares? It's not like it can make our money LESS valuable!

The ten has been the least seen bill in change anyway. It seems as though 50's are more commonly seen and buy about as much as a ten used to.

I haven't gotten real excited about having a ten dollar bill since they changed it to the current brownish color--it makes me think I am back overseas using monopoly money again.

I like Gray Wolf's idea, war heroes. Alvin York would be a good start. It would also be real interesting to see a solder or officer from the CSA on a bill. Whoa nellie!

I can't think of a polite way to put it, but here goes: what have any of the proposed women *really* accomplished? Very little. The people who are currently on our money were great leaders and helped make our nation what it is today. What did Harriet Tubman do? She was brave, but a great leader? No.

Maybe the famous stained blue dress. After all It took one, in service for Hillary.
Or the eager carrier of the doggy cam that kept up with GWB.

I could go along with a new image of Hamilton, but lets not be ridiculous.
Why not leave well enough, alone?

So I guess they're trying to get people to stop using tens? It worked for the dollar coin, after all...

No one seemed to like my original idea, so how about this one?

Hooters girls on one side, and the Grand Tetons on the other...

Aunt Jemima ? Does the NAACP still let them put her face on pancake mix? I would have thought that would have been deemed "politically incorrect" ages ago!
