[sheshe2]

as women were allowed to vote. We were Beaten, Tortured and Jailed for asking that our voice be heard. We did not just want to be seen we wanted to be heard and treated equally.



Tonight, one woman reached a peak no other woman has, she is our Democratic nominee for President of the United States.



I salute my sisters and the brothers that support us.

2. It took a Democratic President, Woodrow Wilson, to get the law passed to give women

the right to vote by the 19th Amendment.

It did take a little while, about 6 years, because Wilson was trying to garner support among the Southern Democrats for passage and ratification.

3. I celebrate with you. YET--we still have a Repub. nominee who calls our

nominee a crook, condones his conventions use of "Lock her up!" and is known for his disparaging remarks about women in general and some women in particular. He relishes it.

6. I am, we are fully aware of what Trump...

and his Trumpites think of women. I just wish you left that part of your comment outside the women's forum.

We are not going back, we fought to hard.

8. We do, Michigan, but we're going to win this thing. And we're going to win BIG!
