"I stand before you today as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for the Presidency of the United States. I am not the candidate of black America, although I am black and proud. I am not the candidate of the women's movement of this country, although I am a woman, and I am equally proud of that. I am not the candidate of any political bosses or special interests. I am the candidate of the people." --Shirley Chisholm, January 25, 1972, announcing
her candidacy for president.

UNBOUGHT AND UNBOSSED.
1972 Shirley Chisholm became the first black woman to run for President.
Wouldn't that be hot right now-- a 2fer (2 for 1) candidate--satisfy the masses!
