In this week's opinion column for the Greater Niagara Newspapers, I
correct those who believe that Hillary Clinton is the first woman to run
for President. I focus on the woman who was OFFICIALLY the first --
Royalton's own Belva Lockwood. Some historians will argue that Victoria
Woodhull was the first, but she didn't appear on official ballots and
she didn't meet the age required for the Presidency among other
things...and, hey, we gotta stick up for Gasport people!
