42. So it is about ambitious women now.

Tue Apr 14, 2015, 11:41 AM

Apr 2015

And nothing to do with what that ambitious woman stands for or what she has done?

If the only thing we want is a woman for a president then we are in big trouble come 2016.

Give me a strong woman and I will work my ass off to get her elected, but not just because she is a woman but because she is a democratic woman that stands for democratic values.
And we have one but she cannot run because it is Hillarys turn...and she is qualified because she has done nothing else in life besides politics and can raise a billion dollars.

This will not turn out well.
