Yeah!
Yeah!
No but guys, we need to show these young boys like her son that they too can become president. It’s not like there’s 200+ years of precedent for that.
There have been 43 White Male Christian Presidents. 1 African American Male Christian Presidents. And now there (will hopefully!) be 1 White Female Christian President. What boy was watching that speech and took away that they cannot be president?!?! Because, honestly if they DID take that away, then they are too…
Kudos to Scottie: standing up for all those often-overlooked white men! Boys CAN be presidents too! And maybe, one day, Americans will band together and elect their first male president!
I think that’s a dangerous game to play. I know you don’t mean it this way, but I do feel that any female nominee would be met with objections of “I’ve wanted a female presidential nominee for a long time, just not this female presidential nominee.” All candidates have faults, but female candidates are expected to be…
Finally.
I’ve been an ardent Sanders supporter. It’s because I am a progressive that I am celebrating along with the Clinton supporters, and am I happy to call myself a Clinton supporter as well.
Truly a historic moment for the lot of us.
Wanting to share that I have been a Bernie supporter, but I am so very proud to be voting for, and supporting Hillary Clinton. I did tear up at the end of the roll call, because I was proud that Sanders did the right thing and pledged his support to Clinton.
I’ve been in the tank for Hillary this whole election cycle, and very not-for-Bernie, and this is absolutely a pivotal moment in American politics, especially when we get Hillary elected.
In no way empty symbolism. So many of the issues written about on this blog would not be a problem if only women were regarded as actual valued members of half of the human race.
To the diehard Bernie people crying in these comments and, according to my TV screen, literally crying at the convention:
Another glass ceiling down, one more left to go...
My mom said she saw what she thought she would never see in her lifetime. A black POTUS and now the 1st woman presidential nominee for the democratic party.
I’m excited, I don’t care what the haters say. I never thought in my life time I’d 1) see a black president 2) hopefully see a woman president. I’m stoked because that woman had to be made of motherfucking steal to deal with all the bullshit she’s had to deal with, and whether you call her shillary or Hillary she’s…
Having a drink to toast Hillary Clinton’s nomination. WAY TO GO HILLARY! WooT!
So good to see us finally following in the footsteps of so many other nations who have already had women serving as heads of state.
I’m with her.
He’d buy you drink and bring it to you. But he watches you intently to make sure you drink ALL it it. It makes you uncomfortable so you decline and say you're tired you're going to leave soon. He calls you a stuck up bitch and stomps off.
this is some deep narrative analysis, and 100% plausible. a+, seconded.
