  • A great show.

    And Hillary did not forger her text.

  • Thanks for posting.  A great historic moment.

  • Brilliant.

  • You obviously don't know what a vote of acclamation is. Effectively, there is no nay vote.

  • being industrialized has not given America progression in some aspects, and this was one of them....african americans only got civil rights in the 1960's in the US....the rest of the world was way ahead of you in that respect...

  • Still waiting for you to list an example of a industrialized nation electing an ethnic minority as their head of state...said nothing about women. US doesn't seem so backwards after all now does it?

  • A few come to mind...

    Jamaica, India (religious minorities - which is huge in India), Peru, Bolivia, Venezuela...

    Also you are behind in electing women...here's a few that are ahead of you on that one...

    India (Gandhi), Pakistan (Bhutto), England (Thatcher), Jamaica, Germany (Merkel), Israel (twice)...

    Canada had Kim Campbell

  • Like who? Examples please. It's never happened in another major country that I can think of, but feel free to make stuff up as you see fit.
