LadiesInWhite/ThankTheGOP

The first amendment to give women their God given right to vote was introduced by a Republican Senator in 1878. Republicans fought an uphill battle for 42 years until the 19th amendment was passed in 1920. I'm glad to see their efforts paid off and I hope those wearing white last night know which party fought for them to do so.

It would be nice if more people recognized who fought for their rights.... like the right to vote, and for racial civil rights. Instead, many cling to their political party regardless of what it espouses and refuse to see or just don't know what that party has meant to them and their situations in the past.
Each person needs to select their candidate of choice and judge them by their performance, not on which party they are. I hope the constituents of those ladies in white are watching their behavior and performance in Congress.


Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Also take note that the 19th Amendment was passed by a Democratic government.......The political history of the US is complex and these constant attempts to simplify it in order for either party to take credit for past situations is ludicrous.

Why do you stick your nose in the politics of Israel?.......What's ridiculous to most of the World, is that so many individual Americans tell non-Americans that they have no business being interested in American politics, yet support hundreds of American military bases all over the World.........You pay taxes so your government can stick their noses into other people's countries and let you stay personally ignorant........LOL......How ridiculous is that?
