ZTECT...Where in the ##$&$#(*&**^, heck have you been...

Regarding Diane Feinstein. The women should have been governor of California but the problem was the majority of the population lives in the southern part of the state and didn't know her to well.

It was 1978. I was born and raised in San Francisco. I was on the phone with a friend when he told me his dad had to get City Hall. Mayor Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk had just been assasinated by Supervisor-elect Dan White. My friends father was heavy into city politics. I said I'd pick them up and take them down.

We get to City Hall and security was really tight. We got through to the rotunda without any problems. There was pusing and shoving by the press. People yelling questions as to who the assasin was. Supervisor-elect Dan White's brief political career ended once he pulled the trigger on these two men.

I could see the President of the Board of Supervisors Diane Feinstein emotionally shaken. Men all around her asking people not to crowd her, to give her room. The hot lights were on her as she approached the bouquet of microphones before her. The atmosphere was filled with uncertainty and choas.

Diane Feinstein wanted the Mayorship of San Francisco but never this way. Someone called out Madame Mayor. This was seconds before she was to be aired live. She turned as the decibels in the rotunda of City Hall began to silence. At that point in time her look could have melted steel. Her look silenced those hundreds of people in City Hall.

She explained to the world the events that took place that morning. I'll never forget her courage and determination to unite the City of San Francisco. The homosexual community was ready to explode. There was rioting that evening mostly directed toward the police. Dan White had been a police officer before leaving the force to become a city supervisor.

In my opinion, that day and the days to follow Diane Feinstein carried the City of San Francisco on her shoulders. The woman could have been a General in the Marine Corp.

She has strength and intelligence and most importantly the courage to stand by her convictions. Even if it means that she must stand alone.

Unfortunately, this country is not prepared for a female president.
As a vice president, presiding over Congress, she has that bodies respect and admiration for she is one of them.
