    This primary campaign has raised my awareness that "sexism" still exists on at a national level in the United States. I grew up in a family where boys and girls were encouraged to achieve and to compete in both school and sports. It never occurred to me that I could not pursue whatever career my skills, hard work and determination led me to pursue. By working and with help from a scholarship and from my parents, I was able to study business administration. I chose to enlist in the Air Force served as an admin. officer for a missile squadron After the Air Force, I entered business where I became a computer operations manager of a department comprised of approximately 300 employees. I now have my own business. Not experiencing discrimination, I had paid little attention and more or less thought we were past all that. How wrong I've been has become obvious during this campaign. The old stereotype of the "little woman" whose place is in the home is, unfortunately, alive and well.
