I don't post here often, but I felt pre-empted to sign on here just to talk about this. The commenter below nailed what has been a lingering concern that I've had with other people that I have interacted with or things that I have witnessed.
Reading these comments, so many really give away one of the major problems in the USA - apathy. So many comments ridiculing one of greatest women leaders ever for her looks? She's over 80 years old, what do her looks have to do with anything? She brings up extremely key points about racial discrimination - where are the comments on what she said? Instead, we get comments on her hairstyle. Name calling is something most of us gave up on early in elementary school. If you disagree with her, then bring up specific points and back them up.

I only hope that a lot of you are 8 or 9 years old.

Americans--just like other Anglo's i.e. Brits, Aussies, Canadians--are some of the most judgmental a-holes on the planet. So why the surprise? Nothing will change. ...
