        She wasn’t an American not that long ago🤔 That’s why she is the first. Am sure that makes you uncomfortable but your reaction is negative.

        Shouldn't be about Race or gender, EVER! Selection should be based on Merit only.

        Easy to say when someone of your race has always been chosen for a prestigious position.

        I'm a white woman, Not a white Man. Women are always last to get anywhere, before a man is chosen, so Don't have too big a PITY PARTY 4 yourself.

        Not a pity party, its the sad truth. White women will get get chosen over black women in a heartbeat, maybe thats why you dont understand. You are part of what has always been at the top of the social chain on the US because you and your ancestors are white.

        Africa, South Africa, is full of white people you ignorant twit. Im happy being an American, I just recognize that America has its problems and they need to be dealt with. You're the type of person that dies alone and deservedly so.

        Well aren't u the Smart 1. Yes, S. Africa is White, Obviously I was not referring the white Africa, still mostly Black ppl there. And since u so OBVIOUSLY HATE LIVING IN THE U.S., WHY NOT GO LIVE W YOUR ANCESTORS? You really do rail on. U seem 2 b a VERY MISERABLE MAN.
