She’s not more conservative than her husband. She’s not even more conservative than Obama:

Is it fair to describe her as part of a dynasty, though? She’s a smart, driven woman who married a smart, driven dick man who (as you say) happened to become president first.

Right? I didn’t expect it to be emotional, but I cried! I’m still a little teary eyed a day later. This is monumental. I supported her because of her, but... OMG I actual feel represented suddenly. I just can’t read most comments and absolutely no replies to her tweets. Then the rage hits.

I mean, I cried when I heard Bush say “Madam Speaker” to Nancy Pelosi— the only time I voluntarily listened to Bush speak in 8 years. So, yeah. Madam President? Like a baby.

We owe it to ourselves and the generations to come to, once again, be the adults in the room.

Exactly! I had to yell at my brother for that...because while he’s liberal and feminist, even HE said that to me...I had to clearly point out that it’s because he sees white male as the default. He saw it though, so...progress?

I am okay with saying that part of the reason I voted for her was because she is a woman...I hate that we have to feel shame about that...I am excited to have a woman in the white house. Our perspective is long overdue.

It’s to “bring the revolution, watch it all burn down, etc.” Mostly white male supporters who won’t be hurt by a Trump presidency.

Wasn’t Obama declared the presumptive nominee before the convention in ‘08 with an even narrower margin than this one? I don't think she's doing anything unprecedented

I was really not expecting to have such an emotional reaction tonight. But hearing that piece of information really brought home the history of this moment. We’ve come a long way from Seneca Falls. Damn.

O Em Motherfucking G. Still arguing with Bernie Bros who think he has an actual chance at the nomination. Da fuck?!!!!! I’m not sure I’ve ever seen such delusion. Were the PUMAS this bad in 2008? Maybe some of them were.

“If your heart has been broken by Bernie’s defeat, I truly am sorry. But please don’t let personal disappointment imperil the future: Clinton, whose faults have and will continue to be parsed to the point of disintegration, is unequivocally the better, more qualified, more human, more correct choice”

That was the most bonkers (but awesome) detail. I wasn’t aware of that before, but when she said it I was like “Holy shit this really is her destiny.” Wonkette’s Hillary tee is more accurate than they imagined!

They’re selfish fuckweasels who don’t care about anyone but themselves, and *they’ll* be fine under a President Trump, so screw Hitlery!!!11

I’m puzzled by this reported phenomenon of Sanders supporters who plan to vote for Trump if/when Sanders isn’t nominated.

I watched this with my three first generation american daughters who are latina....and one of my first generation american sons who is latino.

I personally was shunned by my immediate family when I expressed my support for Hillary. They are all Bernie or Bust which upsets me that there is such a divide within the Democrat party. I’m just hurt that my family doesn’t think I’m allowed to be as excited by the prospect of a woman President as people were for a…

I supported her in 2008 and was crushed when Barack Obama got the nomination. I am beyond thrilled to see her take this one all the way, and I hope that Sanders supporters can suck up their disappointment and do the right thing for the world.

Milestone? More like millstone! Just another Wall Street supported plutocrat looking to maintain a status quo that has left working Americans disadvantaged and debt-ridden. Vote for her all you want but real Liberals will never support this farce just because it’s the marginally better of two-

I voted for Hillary for many reasons that had nothing to do with her being a woman. But I am fucking proud and deeply moved to see her take the stage in this historic moment. It means so much to me and other women and little girls around the country.
