The fat lady has permission to sing: "It's over"

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton fought the good fight. H. R. Clinton will concede Tuesday, June 3, 2008 passing the crown to one granted a promise in the 13th Amendment to be free under the Constitution and the 14th to be treated as a full citizen. In 1865 the 13th amendment to the Constitution abolished slavery and the 14th amendment defined who have right to claim citizenship, and what the rights were guaranteed equal protection under the law. Senator Barack Obama, the first African-American to wrestle away the crown from a historical White Man domination under this doctrine. Barack has secured enough delegates to demand the Democratic nomination.

Oh what a day !


But we as women will not for get the hard fight you gave H.R. Clinton for the crown. Sure H.R. Clinton started early and worked hard to claim the crown of America, to be President of the United States, but H.R. Clinton forgot she was not entitled. H.R. Clinton was not granted raced white male privilege as a raced white woman. H.R. Clinton forgot her sistas from the past was discriminated against too under the governing doctrine of the United States. Not even granted citizenship while birthin a nation. The very same practices she touted in the face of African-Americans,during her campaign, in essence stating it was not African-Americans turn, was the same tactic used against women. Not yet to Obama, H.R. Clinton smirked but she was wrong, because based on the doctrine, the Constitution, Barack's turn would come before H.R. Clinton. And had H.R. Clinton studied this historical document and its amendments she would have discovered that White Male Privilege is not ready for a woman president.

It was not yet Hillary's turn.


Had Clinton rallied all women who have been discriminated against, which would have included African-American women, African-American women who have faithfully supported the Democratic party the crown would have been hers. Even knowing her own husband had betrayed her, H.R. Clinton relied on raced white males who did not give women the right to vote until 1921.

H.R. Clinton its not too late, just remember in 2012 in your run for President to remember the ladies,not in the discriminating style of Abigail Addams that you adopted during your campaign, but all women, including African-American ladies. But for now, H.R. Clinton it's time to go.

  1. Clinton has no idea how to bow out gracefully. Last night's thumbing her nose at Obama was utterly classless!
