Now Obama's deputy campaign manager Stephanie -- she says women don't care about the president's -- cool it was -- -- independent.

That you find most popular with women they're not really concerned about what happened over the last forty years.

It wouldn't let that happen in the next forty years.

And that they are seeing -- wage stagnation and the workplace for themselves the uncertainty for our female small business owners.

Is just drive -- -- it whether it comes access to capital or with regulation is coming from agencies like they -- the end.
