    Why is Grant on the $50 bill?

    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?

      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.

                              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.
