I'm with @BooksForYears . This is a holiday that tends to focuses men due to the lack of women presidents. Still, I'd rather celebrate the women who have made it possible through their public service in elected offices for last year to be the first election when a woman is the presidential nominee. Their endeavors will eventually add up to a woman in the White House too. I hope to see a new edition then. #presidential #feistyfeb @RealLifeReading
