Please vote, and encourage other democrats to do the same!

2. what sort of question is that
i really dont see why we should be changing around any currency. seriously, if democrats want to put clinton or carter or whoever on something, there would be just as much opposition. i dont think we should put any president on currency until they are at least 50 years in the ground or something. cept kennedy, you can leave him on the 50 center.

4. Not a real majority
just 50% of 29000 people, many of whom have voted more than once.

>cough, cough<

Nancy Reagan is opposed to this, and urged Republicans to drop the legislature...which is what CNN reported

6. Let's compromise:
If Repugs really want their own currency, let's coin a new dime with the motto AS*HOLE.
