So being at the wrong place at the wrong time makes you an icon? Wow, also look at what she fought for. A bunch of feral Niger's killing and looting. Wow what a legacy. Even the blacks of today are making Martin Luther look bad. Have people judge you by the content of your character, not the color of your skin. Obama proved that one wrong, he sure as hell didn't get to be president by his character, he won only because he was black.
