That was Madame Defarge -Michelle Obama's message to us.

I gotta ask myself why on Earth is this race even close? I, I, I lay awake at night wondering what in the world is goin' on? And it's clear to me that the question isn't whether Kamala is ready for this moment, because by every measure she has demonstrated that she's ready. The real question is, as a country, are we ready for this moment?


“And let me tell you all — to think that the men that we love to be either unaware or indifferent to our plight is simply heartbreaking. It is a sad statement about our value as women in this world. It is both a setback in our quest for equity, and a huge blow to our country standing as a world leader on issues of women’s health and gender equality. So fellas, before you cast your votes, ask yourselves, what side of history do you want to be on?”
“Now, I recognize that there are a lot of angry, disillusioned people out there, upset with the slow pace of change, and I get it. It is reasonable to be frustrated. We all know we have a lot more work to do in this country. But to anyone out there thinking about sitting out this election or voting for Donald Trump or a third-party candidate in protest because you’re fed up, let me warn you, your rage does not exist in a vacuum. If we don’t get this election right, your wife, your daughter, your mother, we as women will become collateral damage to your rage.”

We have every right to demand that our, the men in our lives, do better by us. We have to use our voices to make these choices clear to the men that we love: Our lives are worth more than their anger and disappointment. And we are more than just babymaking vessels. And if you are a woman who lives in a household of men that don't listen to you or value your opinion, just remember that your vote is a private matter, regardless of the political views of your partner. You get to choose, you get to use your judgment and cast your vote for yourself and the women in your life. Remember, women, standing up for what is best for us for us can make the difference in this election.
