Do you feel like a loser, because Hillary lost? Why do you allow these attitudes to affect you so? Why is it so important for a woman to be President of the United States. Perhaps the collective consciousness of the United States, will not allow for a woman president, right now. Perhaps this is the 'Will of God'... We all know that most of the attitudes of many people in our country are rather barbaric. Why do you continue to beat your head against a wall, expecting these people to suddenly feel like you do towards Hillary or toward Sarah. But, people have a mind of their own; people have their own paths to follow.
It is hard for me to believe that you could not see the miracle of someone like Barack Obama being elected President. This is a much greater event, then could have possibly have happened, if Hillary had won. There is so much more potential with Barack Obama. Hillary is glad to be in the Senate, so the question becomes: Why are you so dependent on the way she was treated, and why do you continue to focus on this, distracting you from the positive things which are happening?
