I an the very first to admit, I was not a Barack Obama backer from the get. It had nothing to do with his skin color, just his sex. I really wanted "Hillary!", in other words...a FEMALE Prez, that time around.
However, once Mrs. Clinton dropped out, and I took the time to learn what Mr. Obama was in favor of...and against, I realized our viewpoints were more than similar...they were completely aligned.
Then, there was Mr.Eric Holder, as our AG...Attorney General of the United States. I am old, I remember Nixon's AG, Reagan's AG and Bush's (I and II) AG's.
There has not been an AG since I cannot remember when, that I would support as I do Mr. E. Holder.
Clearly, he is a legal mind like we have not seen in decades. What did he do that made me really root for him?
When he stood up to that idiot "Gomer", and reiterated the fact that "He Is The Attorney General of The United States" at the time when this was televised, I could do nothing more than cheer.
Mr. Holder has done an excellent job of defending the rights of you, I and our LGBGT brothers and sisters. He has focused on the abuse of "voting rights" which have been a bone of contention since we elected our "First Black President", and of course you must understand why?...and Mr.Holder has defended all of us. Those of us who do NOT belong to the 1%.
We have artists, politicians and real "thinkers"(prior to the Conservatives painting of all of the aforementioned with a nasty brush,anyone who doesn't agree w/ Fox Entertainment News) who understand what this means to us as a society.They all mourn Mr. Holder's resignation, and for good reason.
Do you?
