As a role model for women and men, and a threat to entrenched self-aggrandizing men, she is way up there with Dolly Parton, Madonna, Cher, Beyonce and Lady Gaga and I love her for it. She had a good start in life with a supportive family, but she built her way from there to here with talent, smarts, integrity, good choices, hard work and kindness. Conservatives should love her if they believed in their own ideals.
