Eleanor's Legacy

Laura - Camillus

Watching and waiting.

I hoped you would run. I assumed you would run. I felt a current like electricity flow through me when I knew you were running.

I am 43 years old and a 1993 law school graduate. I have felt the changes just since I started working in law full time in 1994 that have occurred. Women do not have to be propped and/or promoted by a strong man to move ahead anymore. We women finally have a face, and strength, power and support for our ideas and accomplishments, policies, and ideologies not just as "women" but as individuals who also, luckily, happen to be women.

After the primaries I supported and continue to support Barack Obama. But until my last breath I will never forget the emotion that welled up and over me during the Democratic National Convention with the undying show of support for Hillary Clinton. There aren't words.......

The doors you have opened for women ....literally kicked down for women, will never be forgotten. Thank you so much.
