4. Good for y'all.

Lucky luck man. She is so brilliant, fearless and beautiful inside and out. I hope one day he becomes the First Man, with brilliant children playing in the Rose Garden, back in it’s pre Melanoma destruction. This young woman should inspire so many young girls to fight for their rights and strive to become leaders. Many more like her, no more Bang Bang Barbies, MTG’s or Blackburns. Talk about a stark contrast in intelligence.
