    Contrast to Biden READING his remarks, and making it political. (And I believe he exceeded the "uh" limit by at least 10 times. Good grief, he can't even read remarks.)

    I'm new to Twitter. I miss much. I don't understand the cultish influence of RBG. Is the below supposed to be funny? Who did it - her fans or her detractors? I'd like comments even if it's just opinion. You can't be more uninformed than I am.

    I watched both trailers. I can't get the full versions of either without paying. That will have to wait until October. Which would you recommend if I had to pick just one?

    There's a third coming out - a documentary called 'Ruth'. It's also pay for play.

    I enjoyed both. One is a documentary and one is a movie, but they are both excellent. Many people have forgotten how difficult it was for a woman to have a career path (even with an ivy league education) as recently as the 1960s and 1970s. I'm sure many of the female posters on this forum can recall the condescension and sexual harassment of that era. Sadly, the young women of today take their rights for granted; many of us didn't have that luxury.
