Hillary Clinton For President, NO; For Equal Rights Amendment, YES
by Jan Stephen James Cavanaugh, Ph.D. on 03/23/13
Dear Hillary Clinton, I read in the news that you have many options --- some say run for president, some say work for your husband --- but when I read that you, “will continue advocating for women’s rights around the world”, my heart leaps for joy. If I am right, listen to your heart, for your greatest work is yet ahead of you. Not as president, for that time has gone. Never look back. I believe this is always good advice. Some might say as president you could make ERA happen, but I think that a herculean task and unlikely. You are admired, you are respected, and you are loved. You are a champion. And, there are those who cannot abide your inclusive values, too Christian, even for many Christians, and hate you. Love, equality, and justice, this is your foundation, and it is so “right on” and in keeping with the spirit of the first line of our Constitution. And, therein lies your destiny. Accomplish this and you will be one of the greatest American women, ever. An Equal Rights Amendment.
