320. Thank you
I'm not fond of Hillary as a candidate, but the sexism stinks. And, Obama doesn't have to play "the gender card"- the press, and the electorate, share the same perspective about gender discrimination that fish have about water. The contempt of women is completely invisible. Actually, kind of funny, don't you think? Really, one of the brighter parts of the day. Did you hear the one about the woman who...ha, ha, ha, :headbang:sorry I just can't help it...:applause: :applause: God that's so funny I just can't even finish it. :rofl: But, just kidding, you know what I mean. These light moments really cheer me up! :toast:

This bias is invisible because everyone knows that men are awesome. I mean, really, REALLY awesome. :headbang: And women are...the opposite. Definitely not awesome, that's for sure. Ask anybody...:patriot: :patriot: :patriot:

Earlier in the campaign I remember the question being asked over and over- is America ready for a woman president? If America was really a land of equal opportunity, a woman wouldn't have to have been married to a president to get on the ballot.
