She would be disappointed if she did see today.
God Bless ya, Gerry baby. We'll miss you. You were a great American and a pioneer.
I was 14 in 1984. People were captivated by this beautiful woman and powerful speaker. She was well liked, R.I.P.

Yes she was. She was a gem. I will miss her -a staunch conservative
This woman would have been a republican today. She's real. She has passion and she was a pragmatist. I'm a die hard republican and i would have voted for Gerry.
Wonderful and inspiring
Remember THIS woman, not the one from Alaska, was the first on a national ticket.
Thank you for posting this, EVGINC.
RIP Geraldine Ferraro Respect from the United Kingdom
So sorry to hear about her death. She was a lady with tenacity, and may she now be at peace. ,
amazing
Thank you for your brave attempt to stop the damage that Reagan and Bush Sr. inflicted upon this world. You did your best! You deserve a nice eternal rest for all you accomplished. Eternal rest unto her, O, Father, and may perpetual light shine upon her.
Sad day - RIP Geraldine.
Rest in peace Senator Ferraro.
Historic address
What a lady. What a great candidate for such an important public office. Give me another Geraldine and I'll be proud to vote for a woman into the office of Vice President!

@zagorith14 You mean Congresswoman Ferraro. She was never a Senator (although she did run for the U.S. Senate in both 1992 and 1998).
@GeorgiaKev Lol, I don't remember even posting this.
@SexyLiLLeilaniMya Well, I don't know.....just imagine Dan Quayle running around the world as Vice-President of the United States. Oh, wait--we DID!
@toddsmitts Palin was the first for the Republicans.
@FlamingBat Not much, to be honest - Reagan was pretty much unbeatable...
Sounds like someone stole someone's speaking points
i wish she could have seen the tremendous victory of vice president elect Kamala Harris.

Not even a comparison. Harris is a fool. Gerry was a class act.

@@ElliottAS I didn't compare them, I just said that it would have been nice for Geraldine Farraro, someone who believed that the office of Vice President should be one day held by a female, so much so that she even seeked the office herself, to see a female actually take the office.
She died today
It's unfortunate Reagan won
