Andrew Jackson should be on the $20 dollar bill because of all of the beneficial things and positive things he did to better our country. First of all, he got Florida back from Spain, which now is a very good and visited place. He also was loved by most in his country and he has good personality traits, such as confidence and integrity.

Andrew Jackson should remain on the $20 dollar bill because he has done more positive things for our country than he has done negative. For example. he got Florida back from Spain, which many people visit, he helped fight back against the British during the War of 1812 which made him a national hero. He was also intelligent, loved by many, and he did not go down in a fight easily.

I think he should not remain on the $20 bill. I say this because yes he did do some great things for America, but the way he executed them was terrible. For example he did get lots of more land fro farming and expanding America, but he disobeyed the Supreme court, which if you did now you'd be impeached, and killed 4000 Indians.

I think that Andrew Jackson should not be on the 20 dollar bill because he was not considerate of the Indians. Although he benefited American in many ways he was harsh on the Indians and disregarded the Supreme court after the Indians had fairly won the case.

After researching Andrew Jackson, I came to the conclusion that he does not deserve to be on the 20 dollar bill. Jackson was not the best president and he was not liked by many people. If I could chose who could be on the 20 dollar bill, I would pick John F. Kennedy because he was a great president and was seemed to be liked by many people. He also was assassinated during his term. Andrew Jackson should not be on the 20 dollar bill because he was not a liked president and was very violent.

I think that Andrew Jackson should be on the 20 dollar bill because of what he did. Even though he did do a lot of good things as president, he still did a lot of bad things too. Andrew Jackson was a very violent president. He kicked the Indians out of their territory, and no one will ever forgive him for that. I still think he did a lot of good things though. Without him, we wouldn't have that land.I think someone else should be on the 20 dollar bill. I think he deserves to be on the 20 dollar bill.
