For John, BLUF: Back before permit to carry was popular. Nothing to see here; just move along.
"Harriet Tubman Is a Great Choice, Not a Politically Correct One".
From National Review and Mr Jim Geraghty. Go to the link to see one proposed version of the Double Sawbuck, with Ms Harriet Tubman.
I do think those snarky folks who suggest that because Ms Tubman was a slave, who escaped, and who fought slavery, she might object to being on the money of this Capitalist nation, are flat out wrong. Ms Tubman borrowed money and used it to do things that provided work, like building a house and building a church. I think she was happy enough with our economic system. After all, other options weren't so good. Like the Ottoman Empire. Or the Feudalism of certain Western Hemisphere nations.
And, The Donald is wrong on this one. It is not a politically correct choice. It is the best choice of all the choices.
Hat tip to the InstaPundit.
