women, black, Indian, and more. It certainly feels important for me since it wasn't too long ago that even educated Democrats felt that I wasn't a real American and that I was stealing jobs and should leave the country that I was born and raised in. Well now, we stole the VP job at the white house! And she's a badass Democrat. Muahahaha
