Excerpt
It is my honor to stand before you today not only as president of this great nation but as the first woman president of the United States of America. Our nation was founded on the principle that "all men are created equal." Thomas Jefferson believed that all people should participate in government and have the right to vote. Women have struggled for these rights since this nation's birth.
