some people think we can dictate our perceptions of freedom on other societies, but it does not always work and many times backfires.

The whole idea of supporting someone because they are a woman, a male, Catholic, gay or another race is repulsive. That allows people to separate everyone into narrow segments of society and is divisive. As a woman in her 60's I know the challenges that women face, but I do not agree with Albright and Clinton that we should have a special place in hell if we do not vote for Clinton.
