Well, what on earth did I do to deserve all this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jX5Q5YI4VA&feature=related Google and I are searching for the words to thank you.

I’d like to add Kim Campbell, Prime Minister of Canada in 1993! And also note that Michealle Jean, our Governor General in Canada, is not only a woman, but a very charming black”ish” woman too!

Thank you, Emcye! What a beautiful list, and long needed. We, in the USA, of our generation, have been acculturated not to trust women with power. Looking around a lot closer to home, Candice, I wish you wanted a second career in politics!

FANTASTIC!!! Thank you Emcye!! this is a delightful list of what my daughters have to look forward to! Now, of course the trick will be to get my gorillas see and pay attention to what it’s gonna take to be leader of others! or at least independant enough to lead their own lives !

Keep On With The Keepin’ On! I refuse to give up; nor will my pick for the next President of the United States of America. GO HILLARY! I have kept my political views private until now. Hillary is clearly the candidate with the most experience in the political arena. She was the great woman standing behind Bill during our days of prosperity. Senator Clinton had the courage and strength to keep her family together during the scandal. Hillary Clinton has lead by example and has raised a beautiful free thinking daughter who contributes to our society in a proactive and dignified manner. I admire Mrs. Clinton’s tenacity and sheer will. Hillary Clinton has exhibited diplomacy and she has on her own made REAL LIFE CHANGE in our country. I will fight for Hillary and sing her praises through to the livin’ end of my days! I am not a woman of great means nor do I have much education but I am smart enough to know that Hillary would make an excellent Madame President. Hillary Clinton is the sensible choice and has proven herself to be a warrior and a champion of the people. It is my hope that our party will unify and that “The Dream Team Ticket” will be one of the most powerful entities on this planet. And when I say unify the party; I mean Hilly on top! (badada boom … sound of a drum after a corny joke) …. many true words are said in jest!

High heels and heavy artillery?! That phrasing gives a new meaning to spectator pumps! Love It!

Let us look at the word artillery …. how about arthillery?! Senator Clinton certainly packs some heat! It ain’t over till its over! Goodnight all … after 2am chitime …. can’t wait to wake up and see all the posts. TRUE ENLIGHTENMENT!

Yes, just not HRC. Ann Richards would have been a definite ‘Hell Yes!’
