Andrew Jackson Outdated Beliefs

Every country knows that currency is a big deal. Outside of the monetary value, every country with its own currency knows that important historical figures should be portrayed on the money we handle every day. I’m sure whatever initial reason they had is valid, but Andrew Jackson does not belong on the $20 bill. There are more deserving American figures that can be represented on something that we see so often! George Washington (Mr. $1), Thomas Jefferson (Mr. $2), Abraham Lincoln (Mr. $5), Alexander Hamilton (Mr. $10), Ulysses S. Grant (Mr. $50), and Benjamin Franklin (Mr. $100) have all done something to better America and its future. All Andrew Jackson did was distance himself from the diversity that would flourish in the future of the United States.
Andrew Jackson’s outdated beliefs that one race is superior to another should NOT be promoted as a reward for people working 9-5 or even part-time, minimum wage. We should be able to broaden the horizons of those who had not
seen that perspective before. They need to realize that we should not place such a man on a pedestal. A man who is afraid of diversity and cooperation should not be honored in this way or in any way similar. This world is chasing the dollar sign more than ever. Why chase it to see the face of unacceptance staring back at you? Being on a dollar bill is a privilege. The line up of *men* depicted on American paper currency have done America favors and improved the quality of the country in some way.
George Washington was the first President of the US and gave solid advice, even in his final days in office (unfortunately, this is advice that America did not take too seriously).
Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence and was in charge of the American end of the Louisiana Purchase. Alexander Hamilton has a really cool Broadway show named after him and that’s enough reason to be honored. In all seriousness, he is considered a Founding Father, one of the Constitution’s greatest supporters, and was the first United States Secretary of the Treasury. Ulysses S. Grant was the 18th president and led the Union Army to victory in the Civil War. Benjamin Franklin was a Founding Father, wrote Poor Richard’s Almanac, and is credited with DISCOVERING ELECTRICITY. How does Andrew Jackson fit in with that. He did not have America’s best interests at mind and is a man that ended up with an entire political party formed to oppose him! He should not be a representation of success for so
many!
