@faustosterling Yeah, it’s amazing, sobering, and down right shocking! And if you haven’t watched First Ladies on HBO, another great informational thread.

@faustosterling I have so much more respect for Betty Ford, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Michelle Obama…I’ve had the wrong impression about 2 of them all my life! Again, wonder why this wasn’t share in history classes.
