7. She is correct.

I have been to her 'town halls' twice now, and I have not been allowed to say anything. Probably because I look like a rethug... big, old, bald white guy... which is somewhat off-putting, to be honest. However, the idea that those who fight bigotry would fall into it when they decide whether or not to let me say hello and applaud her positions on things... well...

However, her office has tried to help me twice already. I have voted for her since I moved up here. She could be the future of this country. Which scares the absolute hell out of the 'establishment'.

I find that a good thing.
