Considering Reganomics, wouldn't his picture on a credit card be more appropriate?
(No disrespect intended neo's.)
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Dinger's proposed constitutional amendments:
A. In order for someone's face to go on our money, that person has to have been dead so long that there is no living American who remembers him or her personally. I mean, look at our cash: we've got Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson, Hamilton, Jackson, Grant and Franklin.  Of these, the only one with questionable cred is Grant. (Those against Hamilton -- uh, you know he did kinda establish the financial base for the country).  Of these, the only one anyone could remember when they slapped his face on the currency was Grant. And when his face went up, there were plenty of people to remember him.

B. No naval ship, airport, or weapons system shall be officially named after a living person.

C. Only Republicans go on Mt. Rushmore. And only Republicans shall be allowed to visit that monument.

I dunno, Truman is up there with the whole thing about Manhattan that everyone is always talking about, what's that? (j/k)of course there's always Nixon, we should put Nixon either on some money or he sohuld be the mascot for some kind of recording device; Sony's new Mascot :" Super Nose to the rescue with all your audio recording needs":rolleyes:

Kennedy's face is on the 50 cent piece, I'm sure there's someone maybe who remembers him personally...

Adams the 4th President, or Madison the 4th president?

(JQ Adams was the 6th...)

I believe the same thing that G. washington believed in. That no president should be on any of our money.


but if your going to stick him on a bill. make it the 50. Why the hell is that drunk grant on our money? Hamilton ment far more to this country then reagan every could have.

Stabby thinks Lizking should look closely at some dimes.  At least that is my take.
