Was Hillary really the first woman to be nominated for president?
It seems like such an old story. 
Firstly, there was Geraldine Ferraro, in 1984 the first woman nominated as a Vice-President. She lost in a landslide.
  Second, when America and the world were very ready for a leap forward, Hillary lost the nomination to a black man.
  Third Hillary's been in the news almost every day for 25 years. 
    Fourth, Hillary's been at the top or very near the top of the power chain for a quarter of a century.
  Fifth, "Dynasty" was a TV mini-series back in the 1970's that featured ruthless, wealthy, corrupt women fighting for power. In 2016 Hillary seemed redundant.
