Empowering Women

We did not break the glass ceiling, Hillary did not win the presidential election but the fact that she came this far gives us hope as women that nothing is unattainable if we work hard at it. Yes a small fire burns within us and we hold hope in our hearts that a woman can one day become president of this nation.

We know the road will not be easy. We know that we will have to work twice as hard but I believe that one day a woman will create history by becoming the leader of  one of the greatest nation on earth, The United States of America.

Thank you Hillary Clinton for giving women hope and a voice.

2016 Presidential Election

The election campaign of 2016  has become more of a smear campaign than anything else. Some of the things I am seeing and hearing makes me wonder what people expect of a leader. I am still trying to wrap my head around the comments that Donald Trump has made in regards to women. I can’t wait or the election to be over and done with. On election day go out and vote wisely.

The Republicans and the Donald

Some Republican are not pleased about Donald Trump being the nominee for the upcoming presidential election. However they had better get used to the idea because they brought in on themselves. They spent the better part of the last seven year opposing everything that President Obama tried to do and even when the presidential campaign began their focus was still on Obama.

I listened to these Republicans during the early part of the presidential debates and I kept asking, do they realize that Obama is no longer running for president. While they were busy beating the Obama drum Trump was busy feeding people with rhetoric that surprisingly enough a lot of them wanted to hear. Apparently his speeches were enough to convince his followers that he can not only keep them safe but he can make America great again. Not only that while the other presidential hopefuls were still busy talking about Obama Trump was busy putting them down and he watched them fall out of the race one by one.

Perhaps if they hadn’t been so busy swimming in the Obama stream they would not have been swept away by currents from the Trumps River. Now it is clear they all they can do is oppose.
