Daughter of a slave? Who else would she vote for?

Yes I know - of course she voted for Obama, blah blah blah.  STILL - how amazing it must be for this woman to see such progress in her nation.  The daughter of a slave... when less than 50 years ago she had to pay a hefty fee to vote (literally)... now she is actually voting for an African American presidential nominee.  How cool it must be for her!

has a tingle going up his leg.

I can't imagine how she must feel to have the chance to cast a vote that symbolizes equality after experiencing being a third class person most of her life. It must be a feeling of true joy.

Good for her!!
