56. The plight of women...
Maya Angelou forgets that the plight of women is not the same for all women. She forgets the plight of African-American women. Who face discrimination every day in this country as African-Americans more than they do as women. Who would be better served by an African-American president than a Madame President.

Women do not need men. They certainly do not stand by men who abuse women. Too many women do that. And point to Hillary Clinton as an example of how doing so in the end is the right thing to do. For many, it turns out to be the wrong thing to do.

Maya Angelou forgets what it is to be an African-American woman.
