Time for a woman to run things. Especially this woman, clearly by far the most experienced and qualified candidate over the entire GOP and Dem pool. The amount of shit she’s withstood for 25 years would make most of these small men wither.

My apolitical wife is especially jacked to vote for her.

My mother (a Navy veteran from the Vietnam era) was always of the opinion that military personnel and veterans should not be involved in politics. She was disappointed that I ran for my village board. (For the record, I did not use my military service as a campaign point, though everyone in town knows I am a disabled veteran.)

That changed this election. The combination of Senator Mark Kirk dumping all over Representative Tammy Duckworth, combined with Donald Trump dumping on Senator John McCain caused her to get out and register to vote.

She wants Kirk out, and doesn’t want Trump anywhere near DC. She reëvaluated her political position on veterans voting or running for office and decided that was a poor choice. She voted for Senator Sanders in the Illinois Primary, and will be voting for Hillary Clinton and Tammy Duckworth in the General Election.
