Yeah, I'm not sure what's difficult to grasp about this concept. I'm an American, and a woman, and I'm excited to see more women, closer to my age and closer to my situation, being elected. The population of this country is not made up of one demographic, so if people are eager to vote for a candidate simply because they believe that candidate will take their own issues into account more than his/her/their opponent, I don't see what is wrong with that. Sometimes that IS tied to race, class, ethnicity, etc.
