reagan's face on the dime?The running debate in the house a few months ago wasn't about the war or medicare. It was whether or not Ronald Reagan's profile should grace our dime. Franklin D. Roosevelt has been on the current US dime since 1946, and some felt it was time for a change, but the bill didn't receive much support and isn't expected to take effect. Oddly enough, Lincoln has been featured on our current US cent since 1909, but no one's clamoring to put a new face on it. Maybe it's because people want to do away with the cent altogether. » Permanent link | News Reader comments
In order to put Reagan's face on the dime now, someone would have to kill him. I'm sure his wife would have something to say about that. » by arnie on May 31, 2004 @ 01:23 AM #FDR was the greatest president of the 20th century bar none. Removing him from the dime in order to put Reagan's face on it is politicaly motivated and wrong headed. Nobody did more for the American people than FDR while also leading us through the worst war we have ever been involved with. His dedication to finding a cure for polio (march of dimes), and heping the elderly, disabled and other disadvantaged individuals is unparralled. FDR's image should now and always grace the face of the dime. |
