In her five minute speech, she spoke about Hillary’s achievement passionately, and cemented her belief that Hillary WILL beat Trump to become the first female president of the United States.

What does it take to be the first female anything? It takes grit and it takes grace.
Where does she get her grit and her grace? Where do any of our female firsts, our path-breakers, where do they find that strength?
Nearly 100 years after women got the vote, you people have made history.
