“I remember that women lived in a man's world. If a woman worked, she was paid less than a man. She took care of the home, the children and her husband as well. It's about time and long overdue that we have a woman president! I feel like a lucky duck to be in this country and to have all the goodnesses that this country has bestowed upon me.”
