REUTERS/Courtesy Library of CongressBy Megan Cassella WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Anti-slavery crusader Harriet Tubman will become the first African-American on the face of U.S. paper currency, and the first woman in more than a century, when she replaces former President Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.

The real estate mogul and Republican frontrunner revived his favorite nickname for Texas Sen.
