Isn't there an unwritten rule that a country needs to put its own citizens on its own money?

I was suprised when Ronald Reagan died, that nobody suggested he should be buried in a pyramid.

I never suggested putting Darwin on American money...what I suggested was putting non-political (but otherwise epic) American's on your money. Here are a few off the top of my head:
General Patton
Martin Luther King, Jr
Thomas Edison
etc...

I just saw the third option you decided to put in there, and I thought that if we were to change the face on the $50 bill, it would be the best to change the face to Teddy Roosevelt. After all, Grant, great general as he may have been, is universally considered to be a poor president, and Reagan, is... polarizing to say the least. The left hates him, and the right loves his legend, but would love him less if they bothered to look objectively at it. On the other hand, Theodore Roosevelt... just look at Edmund Morris' biographies of him. He effectively started government actions in conservation, and food safety, and was even the first president to invite a black person over for dinner at the White House, and, quite impressively for the time, did so on the logic of "Booker T. Washington's in town, and I liked "Up From Slavery," so I think I'll invite him over for dinner. And of course, he was a complete badass, and any Chuck Norris-style facts about him are likely to be only slightly exaggerated.
