Haven't they been working on this for a while?
There are a number of surveys that have attempted to rank the presidents -- here are a handful:
http://www.americanpresidents.org/survey/historians/ (performance within context of times is probably the most relavent, though some of the others are interesting)

While Reagan is ranked fairly high, I'm not sure it's high enough to justify putting his face on the ten-dollar bill this soon.
And this is just me, but I don't really like the idea of having recent political figures on currency, regardless of political party. What's wrong with the old guys?
