Domestic News

Hillary Clinton won West Virginia, six more primaries left before the convention.  I know that if she gets the nomination I will be a happy woman.  This is a step forward for the rights of women.  

But is it?  Does the first woman president want to get there because of being a past first lady?  Do we want the first female president to forge the way for female rights to be beholden to a husband because he was president first?

I don't know once again but as a voter I ask these questions.  It is sad that the first female presidential candidate was first lady.  It is as if she tasted power and is drunk on it.  

I am a Hillary supporter until the end of the primary season.  I will support Hillary if she has the nomination for president, but I wonder...
