 AT> Being the 1st of a demographic to do something - it's a statistic.

   So, that's a statistic to you? Now I better understand why you always trust hearsay over statistics.

 AT> Jesse Ventura is a propagandist.

   Is that worse than being a twice impeached, four times indicted, convicted felon? (Can he even vote or carry a gun now?)

 AT> He made it sound like gender is an
 AT> important quality for a president when it's not.

   So, is it not important that 52% of the population finally has a representative after two and a half centuries?

   Would you rather have one that shows him sinking into a total mental meltdown in front of the entire World day after day?

 AT> I'm not blaming you for it. It's just these damn celebrities who trigger
 AT> me all the time.

   It would be less of a waste of energy if, e.g. social injustice or wealth inequality triggered you.

To paraphrase former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura:

  I'm 76 years old now, so the window is closing. I want to be alive to see the first woman President of the United States of America.
