Would we prefer that they elect another white guy? Some of her positions seem a bit extreme, not to mention somewhat hypocritical - the students loan thing comes to mind. I wouldn't have voted for her, but then again my opinion wasn't one that mattered.

If the GOP fields more PoC candidates, it can only be a good thing.
