I know there have been questions asked about this topic before but I missed them. So the conversation around my house today is the question that has been asked in the ask a question section "If America did a Cut-N-Run what would other countries think?Terrorist? " We ended up talking about women for presidency. Hence my question.. so help fuel out debate and give your answers/comments.. Thanks!

Obviously those at your house wondering what other countries would think if the US got out of Iraq immediately have not been listening: those other countries have already SAID that our doing so would only IMPROVE our image abroad. And one does not need to know dozens of foreign languages to hear it - they've said it in plain English!
The gender of the President will have no bearing upon foreign policy. The *philosophy* of that President and his or her advisers, supporters and hangers-on is what will direct that person. So: the task before the voters is to somehow get beyond the bull in the political attack ads and study the candidate's position on the matters of importance and THEN make our decision. Frankly, I'd vote for Satan before I'd vote for Kindasleazy Rice - and I have a few problems with Mrs. Clinton's record as well. I would heartily wish for other choices besides those two.

Hillary Clinton, she is a strong, independent woman that is not afraid to stand up for what she thinks is right. She is also very intelligent and would have some experience as she was first lady. She would have one of the best advisers in the world with her husband. The last legally elected president and also the most effective at running the country in over 40 years.
edit: Condi is a Bush clone and we have had enough Bush, for a while.

I wouldnt vote for either one for President.
Hillary Clinton tries to hard to please everyone and Condoleeza Rice I dont know enough about her personal policies.
I want a candidate who will not waffle on their beliefs and will defend what they believe in, not simply go by what the polls say or what they think would look best to voters. I would also like one who could admit when wrong, unlike Rice.
So I think a woman would be fine, but not either of these women.

If you look near the top of the screen, on the left, you will see a "Search for questions" field.
You don't have to have been logged in to this site to see any particular question, one of the basic ideas of this site is to archive all questions and answers in a searchable database.
As for the question in your details, most reasoning humans already consider us to be terrorists, so it's moot, though ceasing our reign of terror would be a step in the right direction.
As for your top-level question, no to both. I've never cared for the Clintons as they are far too right wing for me (though Bill has been looking better to me, after having lived under King George the Freakish).
Condi is scum.
If they were the choices, and it looked as though it were close in California, I would probably bite the bullet and vote for Hillary, although I would hate it.
Most likely I would vote Green.

Hillary, she has a real president that can advise on her policy.
Condi on the other hand would have to turn to George.
And this cut and run thing is BS. We have done our job in Iraq. Saddam is out of power, no WMDs, and we have give the Iraq government the oppurtinity to self govern themselves. Job done! If they don't take that responsibilty on, I see no reason for another American to sacrifice his or her life for a country that doesn't care.
WAKE UP!!!!! It is the Iraqis that cut and run

Neither is my choice. Hill is a bend over backwards compromise but Condi is an unthinkably horrid choice. Down with Dictator Dumbya!!!

Clinton. Condi was willing to be bush's servant. Hillary on the other hand obviously wouldnt even be the servant of her own husband, hence the monica scandal. I think a president cant be willing to whore themselves out to anyone.

Hard choice, both are hard core female political players, but I would have to go with Hillary. Because she has prior experience of course!!!!

Neither. I don't care for either one. I'm all for having a chick president, but not those two. I just want somebody smart in the office, one whose main objective isn't to make his millionaire buddies richer.
