Make Harriet Tubman have her own dollar bill and not demote Jackson.

Created by E.H. on May 11, 2016

Andrew Jackson had some flaws but overall was a very good president. I believe that by altering an age old USA dollar that this is altering our history. Jackson has been on the dollar bill since he was president and he made many reforms occur in the US during his time in power. My point being why demote him to the back of his own dollar? What I would like to see is Harriet Tubman put on a 15 dollar bill for example. Not only would this be an easy way for a person to pay for something for a 10 can be too little and a 20 too much to eat out for example but it would also put her on her very own bill and not be putting down any other historical figures as well as giving her pride in her own bill if she were alive.
