What Lew and Obama have done, is to try to degrade what those bills stand for, a reminder of great men who were presidents, now deceased. To replace Andrew Jackson, who is not only famous over his part in the war of 1812, but defied the bankers, and is a deceased president, with a woman, who was not a president, but only made history over being a civil war spy, boggles the mind.
It seems that Obama is wanting hate, discontent, and unrest in the south, since not only did they ban the rebel flag, but now he's waving the defeat of that under their nose, with currency, and that will not go over well.

Mary Magdalene was not a prostitute. There were several Mary's, and the Catholics are who started to degrade Mary Magdalene. It's funny that ABC would continue the lie, when several scholars have shown that she was not a prostitute, which was another Mary. From Wikipedia on Mary of Bethany:
"Medieval Western Christianity identified Mary of Bethany with Mary Magdalene and with the sinful woman of Luke 7:36–50. This influenced the Roman Rite liturgy of the feast of Mary Magdalene, with a Gospel reading about the sinful woman and a collect referring to Mary of Bethany. Since the 1969 revision of that liturgy, Mary Magdalene's feast day continues to be on 22 July, but Mary of Bethany is celebrated, together with her brother Lazarus, on 29 July, the memorial of their sister Martha.[2] In Eastern Christianity and some Protestant traditions, Mary of Bethany and Mary Magdalene have always been considered separate persons.[3] The Orthodox Church has its own traditions regarding Mary of Bethany's life beyond the gospel accounts.Medieval Western Christianity identified Mary of Bethany with Mary Magdalene and with the sinful woman of Luke 7:36–50".
Wikipedia on Mary Magdalene:
"It is almost universally agreed today that characterizations of Mary Magdalene in Western Christianity as a repentant prostitute or loose woman are unfounded,[3][5][8] arising from conflating or merging her identity with the unnamed sinner who anoints Jesus' feet in Luke 7:36-50.[5] The figures of Mary Magdalene, the anointing sinner of Luke, and Mary of Bethany, who in John 11:1-2 also anoints Jesus' feet, were long regarded as the same person. Though Mary Magdalene is named in each of the four gospels in the New Testament, none of the clear references to her indicate that she was a prostitute or notable for a sinful way of life,[3][8] nor link her with Mary of Bethany. Modern scholarship has restored the understanding of Mary of Magdala as an important early Christian leader.[16][17]"
