GOP candidates revealed which women they'd put on the $10 bill — and some of their answers were absurd
So, it seems many of the Republican presidential candidates need to add a lesson in American women’s history…#fail.
After being asked which woman they would put on the new $10 bill during the CNN debate Wednesday, many candidates decided against traditional and contemporary American heroines, opting instead for family members or women from foreign countries.
The “light-hearted” segment revealed the hard truth: many candidates vying for the white house had trouble appealing to the collective consciousness of women in homes across the nation.

... But will it be worth 22% less?
Did you know that in 2013, women working full time in the United States typically were paid just 78 percent of what men were paid, a gap of 22 percent?
The gender pay gap is math; not myth:
- The pay gap has barely budged in a decade.
- Women in every state experience the pay gap, but some states are worse than others.
- The pay gap is worse for women of color.
- Women face a pay gap in nearly every occupation.
- The pay gap grows with age.
