Clinton: It wasn't so long ago that women faced and took down barriers that can seem ridiculous now.

It’s been 96 years since American women won their right to vote—a hard-fought milestone in the long journey toward women’s equality. We’ve come a long way since then, but we still have a shockingly long way to go.

They're not alone.

Seniors now overwhelmingly vote for R policies that would do away with Social Security and other democratically installed services for them.

Military veterans and the disabled vote R policies that would defund the services they depend upon.

It's a pure example of a upside down principle. Can someone, anyone make sense out of it?
