First Lady Edith Wilson was a wealthy Washington widow who married President Wilson in 1915.<BR/><BR/>Her role in Wilson's decision to jail and torture Alice Paul and hundreds of other suffragettes will never be fully known, but she was outraged that these women picketed her husband's White House.<BR/><BR/>"The Privilege of Voting" is a new free e-mail series that follows eight great women from 1912 - 1920 to reveal ALL that happened to set the stage for women to win the vote. It's a real-life soap opera!<BR/><BR/>Suffragettes Alice Paul and Emmeline Pankhurst are featured, along with TWO gorgeous presidential mistresses, First Lady Edith Wilson, Edith Wharton, Isadora Duncan and Alice Roosevelt.<BR/><BR/>There are tons of heartache on the rocky road to the ballot box, but in the end, women WIN!<BR/><BR/>Thanks to the success of the suffragettes, women can now support the candidates they choose -- left, right, in-between or GREEN!<BR/><BR/>Exciting, sequential e-mail episodes are perfect to read on coffeebreaks, or anytime.<BR/><BR/>Subscribe free at<BR/><BR/>www.CoffeebreakReaders.com/subscribe.htmlVirginia Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09724036765002243807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2555123713188257297.post-15626680930574916772008-09-01T00:49:00.000-04:002008-09-01T00:49:00.000-04:00.In endorsing Obama, at least the MSM can be seen ....<BR/>In endorsing Obama, at least the MSM can be seen as consistent. This is going to be fun. History will be made, one way or another, and it looks more likely now that it will be the right history. <BR/><BR/>Even more Hillary supporters will go for McCain now. Obama is no longer a near certainty. Heaven forbid something happens to McCain, but I believe Palin would rise to the occasion. She has the right attitude. Everyone knows Obama is NOT ready for POTUS, Palin is only for the VP. Look at Dan Quayle. <BR/><BR/>YEY SARAH PALIN! YEY John McCain! Great pick! The 1st woman for the GOP VP? SCORE! <BR/><BR/>She's conservative! SCORE! She's a Governor! SCORE! She's pro-drilling! She's a hunter! SCORE! She's a hockey Mom and played basketball in school! SCORE! She's pro-life! And she respects women! SCORE! She fights corruption! SCORE! She's high-energy! SCORE! She's tough! SCORE! She's got 5 kids! SCORE! Her son is going to Iraq in the Armed Forces! SCORE! She's married to a Blue-collar professional! SCORE! She's smart! SCORE! She's young! SCORE! <BR/><BR/>And she's a Hotty to boot! SCORE! The Left is going to go nuts! SCORE!<BR/>.<BR/>absurd thought -<BR/>God of the Universe says<BR/>never elect a woman<BR/><BR/>who's a conservative<BR/>she's just a gender traitor<BR/><BR/>.<BR/>absurd thought -<BR/>God of the Universe says<BR/>just HOPE to pay more taxes<BR/><BR/>DREAM about high fuel prices<BR/>CHANGE PROGRESS to move backwards<BR/><BR/>.<BR/>All real freedom starts with freedom of speech.

The reason Harding picked him was that there had been a police strike in Boston and Coolidge stood up to the strike, winning national publicity. That was his only claim to fame at the time. Abraham Lincoln had only one or two congressional terms under his belt, that's all. Was it patronizing to males or to Americans that Lincoln was nominated as the first Republican? What's going on is that the media has become partisan, and so selects issues for emphasis based on party rather than on the news.Mitchell Langberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722335216553899790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2555123713188257297.post-40805688621133411822008-08-31T15:47:00.000-04:002008-08-31T15:47:00.000-04:00If I had to choose one reason why McCain's pick wa...If I had to choose one reason why McCain's pick was a good one, it would be the following: he is allowing the Democrats to dig a hole for themselves, which will be followed by an ad blitz, designed by Rove and his protege, pushing them in. <BR/><BR/>McCain's pick illustrates that the Presidential candidate is supposed to be more experienced than the Vice-Presidential candidate, unlike the Obama-Biden ticket, where the inverse is true. <BR/><BR/>Imao.us elaborates on this point quite well:<BR/><BR/>"Because (from a recent MorOn.Org email) it makes Democrats say things like this:<BR/><BR/> I think she's far too inexperienced to be in this position. I'm all for a woman in the White House, but not one who hasn't done anything to deserve it. There are far many other women who have worked their way up and have much more experience that would have been better choices. This is a patronizing decision on John McCain's part- and insulting to females everywhere that he would assume he'll get our vote by putting "A Woman" in that position.—Jennifer M., Anchorage, AK<BR/><BR/>Let's do some subtle re-writing so that you can see why this makes me giggle so:<BR/><BR/> I think he's far too inexperienced to be in this position. I'm all for an African-American in the White House, but not one who hasn't done anything to deserve it.

The Republican Party brass didn't care for him, so they slotted him into the VP position, thinking he'd be kept in a deep freeze for four or eight years, and his career wouold be frozen on arrival. Only one guy, Mark Hanna, tried to warn them that, if they put Roosevelt in this spot, he'd be a heartbeat from the presidency. And, lo and behold, McKinley's heartbeat stopped.<BR/><BR/>Palin would have to go on to Michael Phelps' 12,000 calorie per day diet for about a month just to qualify as a lightweight.Diogeneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00138837243963257069noreply@blogger.com
