"Hillary Rodham Clinton: Leader Amongst Olympians"  

Saying goodbye to President Barak Obama hasn't been easy.  We, the People, spent over a year listening to speeches, advertisements and comments to help us decide who to vote for next.  A decision had to be made about who would represent us, the American People, for the next 4 years.

On a long and exhausting November Tuesday in 2016, we made the right decision, a very popular decision to support and vote in Hillary Rodham Clinton as our next American President.  We made the right decision, the intelligent decision, the only sane decision.  We voted to finally have the first female candidate for the Democratic Presidential ticket serve as our commander and chief.  We voted for Hillary, the most well-qualified candidate in modern history to run for the position of President.

We voted for you, Hillary...and Hillary...you won.

Hillary Clinton won the popular vote.  She did not win by 10 votes or 10,000 votes.  She won by millions of votes.  She is the President of the People.  She is Madam President. 

I don't need permission to say that I supported her.  I don't need approvals or endorsements.  I wanted to vote for her because I wanted her to win.  She was the best and most qualified candidate, period. 

Hillary Clinton has a talent I will never have as a woman.  I would not know how to control my hurt and anger while having to endure a public scandal as a wife, mother and sitting First Lady.  I would not know how to pick myself up, brush myself off and have the nerve, experience and confidence to run for state office and win.  I would not know how to work daily amongst evil-intentioned people determined to bring down my values, my family and life goals in a city miles and miles away from the comfort of my family's love and friends' compassionate arms. 

And most certainly, I would not know how to stand tall after defeat, awaiting God's wisdom and vision to place me out in the world to learn even more in preparation for the global stage.  I would not know such inner strength.  I could come close, but never arrive within even an inch of the strength and courage of Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton. 

Hillary Clinton ran for the position of President of the United States, not once but twice.  Hillary Clinton stood against campaigns and opponents that only oral histories will do justice in telling fairly.  For what Hillary Clinton endured and survived required nothing short of divine destiny, prophetic contribution to an American mythology that will flow down in history from generation to generation. 

Hillary Clinton ran for the Presidency.  She is a Zeus, an Athena, and worthy of the mythological golden wreath.  She is Hillary, leader amongst Olympians.  She is leader of the People.
