REAGAN!!!
He was a terrible president right? Or is it because of his military accomplishments? But from what I've heard, he really wasn't that great of a general. And of course being a president is not required to be on money- as Franklin is on a bill.
I just hate seeing his face on the bill, that's all
Perhaps we should change it to something else.
recommendations?

We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work...After eight years of this Administration, we have just as much unemployment as when we started... And an enormous debt to boot!" — Henry Morgenthau, Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Treasury secretary, 1941.
He was an excellent drunk, if that improves your opinion of him at all.

Grant was one of the greatest generals ever to exist. He did make a few tactical errors but it was cunning strategy that caused Lee's defeat. But never was he a great president.
No **** you dumbass. My brother and I happen to be named after Lee and Grant.

I remember reading about Grant's Civil War accomplishments. It appears he was drunk at several key battles but never the less one them because he kept ordering his troops to attack when a sobber general would have retreated to regroup.

Anyway, Grant is certainly an important person in US history. Hamilton and Franklyn are on money, and neither of them were presidents.

if the criteria is historical importance, I think FDR should replace Grant. Lincoln already represents that part of US history.

X post - but Chase wasn't on the bill because of his position on SCOTUS. He was ol' Abe's first Treasury Secretary, and between his signing off all those permits to trade with the enemy for generous patrons and buddies, he was responsible for moving the US to a standard paper currency system, as well as setting regular treasury bonds and a bond marketing system (again dominated by political patrons and robber barons, but you can't have everything.)

They should get rid on the penny, IF (huge IF) Reagan ever gets on money, put him on the dime (at most), if they get rid of grant, replace him with FDR, and move Kennedy of our money, freeing up the fifty cent piece.
