And the Democrats were the first to do it, while the Republicans are stuck in some mid-20th century time warp!

Incidentally, the Dems were also the first to appoint a woman for vice president -- Geraldine Ferraro in 1984. It took the Repubs 28 years to appoint Sarah Palin as McCain's VP... in the same year that Hillary came very close to securing the DNC nomination.
