(29,658 posts)when Rachel, was talking to Lawrence he said there were a couple women, and another African American running already. I used to love Boston.....Did not know how horrible a place for minorities to live it is. Ugh......Boston off my list.

We aren't perfect, yet better than most. We elected our AG who is openly gay, first ever. Maura Healey.
Sure we suck at Governors, every other is a goper. However we had OUR KENNEDY, our beloved Senator and President John F, long time passing. Yes white but fought for all Americans. Congresswoman Pressely, black.
Don't tell me my state sucks, we are better than most. Women are a minority and Warren was elected twice.
All that are running are PPL of color but one, so far.
