    FDR would be a great choice for it, Teddy Roosevelt would be a generally agreeable one though.

    Also let’s get a $3 bill with Harvey Milk or Brenda Howard on it, just for the fun of it.

      We need a POC on a bill, but Teddy is pretty cool too. My third favorite Republican.

        True. I’d propose WEB DuBois, but he’d probably be insulted. Nat Turner would be the most based option, you could include a line like “the struggle for freedom is the birthright of all mankind” next to his face. Though that would work with Tubman as well. Tubman is the obvious choice of course and I do hope she wins, but it’s good to also think of others who deserve to be considered.

        Actually the perfect never going to happen would be Lucy Parsons

        Or maybe we just stop putting faces on bills. We have all kinds of natural wonders we could put on the bills instead.
