This is a little off topic, but very timely. The U.S. Presidential election is coming soon, and we now know the two main candidates who will run for the highest office in the country. Mr. Trump has accepted his nomination and Mrs. Clinton will accept hers next week. She named her running mate a few days ago so I thought I might point out what an interesting choice she made.

Mrs. Clinton, the self appointed "champion" of women, apparently could not find a qualified woman to choose as her running mate....so she chose a man.

Mrs. Clinton, the self appointed "champion" of minorities (especially blacks and Latinos,) apparently could not find a qualified minority to choose as her running mate....so she chose a white man.

Mrs. Clinton, the self appointed "champion" of the gay community, apparently could not find a qualified homosexual to choose as her running mate....so she chose a straight white man.

Mrs. Clinton, the self appointed "champion" of Muslims, apparently could not find a qualified Muslim to choose as her running mate...so she chose a straight white Christian man.

Well Mrs. Clinton I am sure that women, minorities, gays and Muslims really appreciate how you have demonstrated true diversity.
