Carly Fiorina: “We shouldn’t change the $10 dollar bill or the $20 dollar bill. I think, honestly, it’s a gesture. I don’t think it helps to change our history. What I would think is that we ought to recognize that women are not a special interest group. Women are the majority of this nation, we are half the potential of this nation and this nation will be better off when every woman has the opportunity to live the life she chooses.”
Scott Walker: American Red Cross founder Clara Barton
Chris Christy: First Lady Abigail Adams
John Kasich: Nobel Peace Prize-winner Mother Teresa
