I'm not one to give up nor change sides because I see someone else winning. That's just not the way I was made. I'm not a follower nor a drop out. I was taught keep fighting in what you believe as long as it serves the better good and not just yourself. I learned so much from education and people. But I was lucky to be a young woman during one of the greatest times of the United States. We had Leaders who taught values and honor to young people. We were told we have a responsibility to stand up for what we believed. Great Leaders are rare now as most are two faced and others are sell outs. I feel bad when I read comments about Hillary as not excepted as possible President because some say they don't like her. Or some who say Obama is the wrong color. It shows we that the JFK's and Dr. Kings were right along. As both said ignorance was a major problem in the United States. I have seen woman fight for the right to vote, own a home and even today for equal pay. Yet I hear woman speak so bad about other woman even Hillary as if that right was given at birth. Color is an issue that is really funny to me. As a child growing up with a racist America I often wondered what heaven was like. Since God isn't prejudice would those who are be allowed in or sent down stairs? Well Puerto Rice will have their say and if nothing else the citizens will know their important too. When I think of Puerto Rico, I think of Roberto Clemente not Ricky Martin.
