Today is my 70th.birthday

and I will live to see a woman in the White House.

Not because she is second choice, but because she deserves to be there.

It still amazes me how many men will fall on a poisoned sword to keep her out of office.

It will be great progress if Hillary wins. The Baby Boom generation is passing and with all our faults, it would be great to see a woman elected President of the United States. Hillary could be the first?

I have to say that on my birthday I was gifted with a breakfast of aki and salt fish and rice from a Jamaican friend for breakfast. I helped her vote for Hillary and she was grateful. Best breakfast ever!

Know exactly what you mean.
I want to be finally able to ' sit my suitcase down' as they say.

It appears that middle aged women may just help to save this country's ass.
