I read in the newspaper that Rep. Geraldine Ferraro passed away from cancer. She was the Democratic candidate for vice-president in 1984, my second year of college. First woman vice-presidential candidate representing a major political party in America. That was the first Presidential election I was old enough to vote in.

Same here. . .I'm so sorry to hear that. She was a mighty woman.
