What more does she have to give us? The haters won't go away. She'll also be 72, and while I don't want to be an ageist, I think we need someone younger. But not too young! As I've stated before, I'd like someone to be President who remembers what it was like when girls weren't allowed to wear pants to school. Someone who's about Obama's age would be perfect for my demographic.

I do think it's essential that we get a woman president. The time is ripe. I'm encouraged by the number of women that are signing up to run for office. Do I think Hillary's sex was one of the many factors that cost us the election? Absolutely.
