Today was the first time I have ever voted.
It struck me that this was a profound moment for me. For the first time ever, there was a woman on the ballot for President of the United States.
It gave me goose bumps. I know this is a very hotly contested race, but the fact remains, finally a woman is in the running for the top job.
Love her or hate her...she's has given us all a gift. Hillary Clinton is making it possible for the next qualified woman to run for this high office.
She has broken through a glass ceiling for future generations.
I don't understand why so many women get so angry with her...
Sure shes not perfect, sure she has some baggage, but what she has accomplished is open up the door for the next very perfect female to be elected President, if there is such a thing in the eyes of this country.
I believe that no matter what anyone's political affinity may be, this woman deserves respect for her very hard fought battle.
Just my humble opinion.

Yeah, I don't know what everyone is so mad at her about either. I agree that she deserves respect for not only surviving in the old boy network, but leading in it. I consider myself a moderate and have voted both democrat and republican in the past. I go with the person, not the party. I'm leaning toward her in this race. I think women's issues need a good shot in the arm lately. She'll do it.
Congratulations on your first vote! I'm so glad you joined in the game :)
Congrats! Alot of people who have never voted before need a particular issue or candidate to get them out there. You found yours!
