I saw this nice article advocating for Jeanette Rankin. I actually like the choice.

Someone who voted against World War II isn't fit to be on anything of note.

I can admire her principle, but she's seriously not anyone to lionize.

I think what I like best about her was that she was elected in 1916 before most women were allowed to vote (Although they were in Montana so not QUITE as impressive as if she was elected solely by men).
