Appreciation Thread For Hillary Clinton. She broke that ceiling. [View all]

Okay, you can love or hate her. However I believe that the hate is misplaced and sexist.

She ran an amazing campaign against all odds. The odds, so many men refuse to accept a woman as an equal. She was held to a different level of acceptance by the media. She was trashed by them all.

She broke the ceiling as the first woman to ever become our Presidential Candidate For the United States. FIRST AND SHE BROKE IT.

Then...then she won the popular vote by over a million.

Raise your hand please.
