Jeez, I am Hillary's age, and the amount of disrespect shown to her over the years has been mind boggling and infuriating.

I don't know whether that's a good thing or a bad thing. I guess it's a combination of the two we'll just have to live with.

I raised both my girls to understand what has been sacrificed for them, and what still needs to be done. Their still living grandmother was born when women didn't even have the vote, and my girls are well aware of this. But even with all my efforts, they still chose NOT TO WATCH THE CONVENTION. It totally killed me. I felt like a complete failure as a parent.
