I am saying you're not going to agree with everyone on everything. I don't but that doesn't mean I exclude those I agree with on most things though there may be some I don't.

The fact is this whole rally idea was created because women were motivated by her female candidacy and to not even list her as someone who motivates women. Feminists are supposed to support woman achievements, strength etc.. I don't see this happening.
