Every woman.. US would vote for her in the next election just to keep a woman in office, no matter how retarded she may be.
They and the Blacks did the same thing when femmy obozo ran.

Many of those enslaved indigenous Americans were enslaved by other indigenous Americans long before Europeans came to the Americas.
Indigenous slavery long predated the arrival of Europeans in the Americas.
The Five Civilized Tribes, Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek and Seminole were deeply committed to slavery, established their own racialized black codes, immediately reestablished slavery when they arrived in Indian territory, rebuilt their nations with slave labor, crushed slave rebellions, and enthusiastically sided with the Confederacy in the Civil War.
Black Americans are not "the perfectors" of our democracy nor are Native Americans, nor are whites.
What makes the U.S. unique is not that slavery was once tolerated in our country, it was in fact tolerated everywhere on Earth for millennia but that we fought a bloody Civil War to end it.
Very few countries can say that.
