The only annoying thing on Wednesday is how everyone in the US will say that it was a huge get for USA to elect a woman president and that this is a historic and monumental moment in the history of the world. It will come off as if the USA were the first country EVER to have a female in the highest office in the land conveniently ignoring that various other countries have already elected women to power and in some instances, multiple times so.

I don't believe in this affirmative action for the presidency, They can brag when they choose the best person for the job, regardless of racial affiliation or gender. "I believe" that is closer to what MLK said in one of his speeches.
