Have had female heads of state? Margaret Thatcher kinda sucked. Having a vagina is one of the stupidest reasons to vote for a candidate. I'd vote for Warren in a heart-beat.

see a woman president, and now we are so close. I'm on pins and needles, hoping it will be Hillary. I don't think some people realize the enormous sea change a democratic woman president would bring to the country and the world. If it happens, it will be a new day for everybody and will certainly embolden little girls and young women who wish to go into politics.

It will be the most amazing feeling seeing her sworn in. I worry it won't happen, and I will be heartbroken if it doesn't. If not Hillary, I think the first female president will be a republican. And republicans are not for women, so a woman GOP president will probably be no different than a man in terms of her support for women's rights. Only a democratic woman can bring the kind of change girls and women need to improve their lives and the lives of their families. The Old Boy's Club is freaking out over having a woman president. #Imwithher.
