On this 88th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment which guaranteed women the right to vote, let us remember one of the "Founding Mothers," Abigail Adams, who wrote to her husband John when independence was being debated:
...remember the ladies, and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands. Remember all Men would be tyrants if they could. If particular care and attention is not paid to the Ladies we are determined to foment a Rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation
