There are two things that I have in common with Hillary Clinton, the first is that we both wanted to be astronauts as little girls, and the second is that we both love the White House!
Hillary Clinton Announces her Run for President 2016
Girls dream about being the President of the United States, too. But sadly, in a "Man's world", that dream rarely comes true. Yes, there are amazing First Ladies, but we want top billing. We want to continue to make history. We are going to change the world. It's time.
"I’m running for president" - Hillary Rodham Clinton
Amazing. It's unbelievable that it has taken over 200 years for women to run for the presidency without fear or retribution. We just got the rights to vote about 100 years ago. And we are not stopping there. Oh, there will be backlash, but we don't care. Women have taken the heat for a lot the world's problems, but we can and will fix the problems that plague our country. Give us 4 years and you will see the strength and the power that women have. Give us 4 more, and you will witness miracles.
For all the daughters being born today, especially my future children, and all future generations to come, it's exciting to know that their first President of the United States is a woman. That's powerful thing. I'm sure that their mothers are their first role models, but to include having a woman president as an additional role model, come one. This is a win-win situation.
Women get denied opportunities left and right, we get minimized and marginalized by other's misperceptions of our skills and talents, and while that is never okay, we get over it, and those people. We make our own opportunities. We set our standards high and dare anyone to rise to the top like we do. We sacrifice so much and what do we get in return?
Well that's all changing.
Hillary Rodham Clinton is ready. I am ready.
"People can judge me for what I've done. And I think when somebody's out in the public eye, that's what they do. So I'm fully comfortable with who I am, what I stand for, and what I've always stood for." - Hillary Rodham Clinton
What I have learned about politics is that people are intimidated by strength and determination.
It's expected, but not always appreciated. Everyone wants to run for something but end up running way from themselves. They change who they are because they want to be everything to everyone. But we cannot allow that kind of leadership to exist, at all levels of politics.
And you know what else?
How sweet is it that she was married to President Bill Clinton, and now she will be President, too. Talk about equal rights.
Well, Hillary Rodham Clinton is living proof of that.
