Kira Kazantsev, Miss America 2015

is America becoming more intolerant or are fewer Americans buying into that America?

The new Miss America, Kira Kazantsev, isn't necessarily what you'd expect. She volunteered for Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand's campaign. Asked what issue women in the Senate should be particularly focused on, she spoke about military sexual assault—with a shout-out to Gillibrand. She's spoken out about having been in an abusive relationship in college. And there's something else, something making Kazantsev the target of conservative venom: She interned with Planned Parenthood "where she supported staff members who provide sex education in the community and at local schools."
The horror! Naturally, conservatives can't hear "Planned Parenthood" without thinking "abortionabortionabortionabortion," even though in fact abortion is only 3 percent of what Planned Parenthood does.
at least she didn't say she wanted to save the world and baby seals, but this is a sexist celebration of nothing it was initially used in 1921 to bring post Labor day business all about the Benjamin's.  we have all heard "sex sells" well that is what pageants do sell it.  here is a link to that experience by a winner,
