I believe that Andrew Jackson should NOT be on the 20$ bill. There are many reasons why he shouldn't be considered a hero, or even a good president. Jackson destroyed the bank of the United states. Jackson hated the bank before his presidency because as a wealthy land and slave owner he had lost money due to its ugly policies. Jackson also not only hired friends, but thieves. All in all, I believe that Andrew Jackson should not be on the 20$ bill.

            During the French Revolution of 1848 started, France was a mess. Food shortage unemployment and economic depression were the main causes of such outbreak in the streets. Louis
Philippe was a man who only cared about the rich, and didn't want to help the poor and needy. The people of France began to riot, and demanded for fair pay, and to stop payment spikes. Even though the people got rid of their ruler, there were still many problems after. So was France a success or a big failure. France was successful in bringing Louis Philippe down from his throne, and finally being heard as a nation, but later France ran into other problems, regarding their government.
