Harriet Tubman

[Rudi]

On the new $20.00 bill. Donald Trump and the Repubs gonna have a heart attack. Good choice.
The great lady" I could have saved much more if they didn't thin they were slaves" quote was to that effect.

[Rudi]

think.

[Gamma]

"weren't"?

[Rudi]

The actual quote was " I freed a thousand slaves I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves".

[Gamma]

different from what was said above

[Rudi]

Somewhat same gist. I think. Anyway, the above was the accurate one not the first.

Washington (AFP) - Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump said Thursday he opposes placing an image of one-time slave Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill, saying she should grace the rarely used $2 note instead.

Right on cue
Surprised it took him that long

[Mosiah]

So, when does he get presidential?!

[Gamma]

True but can somebody EXPLAIN Ben Carson?

[Mosiah]

A freedom fighter vs a slaver and a murderer of native Americans - what's there to debate?

Full time America re-examines ALL of her heroes and do the needful. If we study American history we'd be so surprised about many of these persons who have been honoured with streets, libraries, colleges, parks and a whole bunch of things named after their wretched, cruel evil and disgusting as$es!

Regarding Ben Carson...back in the day, black South Africans were criticised for necklacing traitors of the movement. It would be a Goodyear when Ben finds one that fits.

[Rudi]

I think Carson represents the thousands Harriet Tubman COULD have saved.

[Mosiah]

True! And a lot who never deserved to be saved!
