Hamilton will remain in some capacity.

Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks names have both been floated as favorites. Also it sounds like MLK's I have a dream speech or another even at the Lincoln Memorial might be added to the back of the $5.

I'm all for putting a woman on the $20 bill, but I can't think of any women significant enough in US history to deserve that honor.  Maybe in 50 years we can put Hillary Clinton on as the first female president.

How about Susan B Anthony, the suffragist?

Rosa Parks or Harriet Tubman are much more deserving.
