For those who would like to have Hillary Clinton on the double saw buck, might I suggest Bonnie Parker instead. If you are going to select someone who has no respect for the law, why not go for someone who had no pretenses about her intentions?
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals.

Women weren't even allowed to vote until 1919. If you were a woman and wanted to be heard/make a difference, being a feminist came with the territory. Unless you wanted to give up and go back to homemaking the first time a man said: "Gee, you're a pretty lady but I worry about you messing around with all of those lab chemicals. What if you catch your skirt on fire?"

I have a better idea. Let's replace all the FRN's with a Gilligan's Island theme.
Thurston Howell III: $100 The Professor: $50 Ginger: $20 Skipper: $10 Lovey: $5 Mary Ann: $2 (in an effort to revitalize the deuce) Gilligan: $1
Any objections?
(Sorry if someone else suggested this. I haven't read the entire thread, and I assume there's a $10 thread out there somewhere, and for the record, the FRN's shouldn't be changed.)

Need the following OBW rolls to complete my 46-64 Roosevelt roll set: 1947-P & D; 1948-D; 1949-P & S; 1950-D & S; and 1952-S. Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!
I'm not trying to be contrarian or a pain in the rear here, but it's frustrating to see some pooh-pooh anything that doesn't have a white male on it as PC pandering. But I also realize anytime a real person is put on our money, there's going to be controversy. All the more reason to stick to Laby Liberty or eagles.

Well to be truthful they never even should've started with real people. George Washington himself was against such things.

If you call Winston Churchill a WWII hero, then Joseph Stalin is too. I'd expect her to kick his head out the window as well. You want Joseph Stalin in the White House???
The problem is, if they pick Michelle Obama, she has a RBF. However, if they put a pile of dog crap on the bill, it might help her appearance. I don't know, it's just too early to tell right now.

Maybe by 2020 they won't even be used anymore so it won't matter whose mug is on them.

Of the real people on that list, I'd say Clara Barton.

All portrayals of people on coins and currency are based on political considerations. There is no way around that.
