I thought it was a GREAT speech! A couple of times I jumped up out of my seat with my fists held high in the air!

I want to hear the candidates talk about the setbacks regarding a woman's right to choose. It doesn't seem to be all that important to all that many people anymore. But it's damned important to ME! And I'm tired of watching this damnable trend of pushing women back to the Bronze Age. At the rate we're going, I'd expect some CONS to introduce legislation mandating that all women above the age of 12 MUST grow their hair long like michelle duggar and daughters. The easier for any man to grab her by her hair and drag her back to his cave.

I haven't heard much yet regarding PROTECTING a woman's right to choose - or even recognizing it openly as an important issue - from anybody on our side except for Hillary.
