In reply to the discussion: I'm an old white woman... [View all]Victor_c3
(3,557 posts)32. I haven't felt this proud of my country since Obama was elected in 2008
This is truly a monumental moment for our country.
Many people focus on the fact that the new Supreme Court Justice is a black woman but beyond that, our new Justice is incredibly qualified and strikes me as a fantastic human being overall. As a nation, we were able to look beyond her race and gender to select the best person for the job.
This is the America that I believe in and will fight for.
