It has to be someone who's dead.

It has to be someone who's dead.

is there any specific reasons/histories why it has to be that way?

[Arachno 1D]

I suppose in case they get prosecuted for some heinous crime or naked pictures of them appear in the tabloids

A tradition going back to George Washington.

This also won't be the first woman on a US note. The first was Martha Washington on a $1 Silver Certificate in the 1880's

And the other was Pocahantas as part of a group on the $20 bill in 1865.

Ohh come on. You knew full well what he meant. It does not take a genius to figure it out. Native speaker or not.

So? If you did know what he meant.. why are you posting this? And if you really didn't... I am sorry.

It seems like a personal issue.

My sentiment too. Someone seems too righteous

Actually I have no clue what he meant.  

 

And since this is an open discussion forum, it's kind of the point to be clear and understand what people say and write. not a personal issue. clarity issue and knowing what the f people are saying in a discussion.
