A woman will replace Andrew Jackson on the $20.00 bill.



Whose face do you want to vote for?

MOUNT VERNON, N.Y. -- Barbara Ortiz Howard already has a day job maintaining apartment buildings near New York City. Now she has a second job and it's all about money. No, not earning it -- she wants to fix what she says is wrong with it.



"There are no women on the money and I thought gee this is a crazy omission," said Howard.



Now she's on a mission to send President Andrew Jackson packing and put a woman on the $20 bill. After long hours of research she and some friends came up with a list of 15 extraordinary women. Though Howard says they're all her favorites, she clearly has a soft spot for Harriett Tubman who rescued slaves on the Underground Railroad.

I hope this is a joke...Oprah's name came up. Um, no thank you! Nothing against her but I just don't think she belongs on the $20.00 bill.
