Do you think America is more ready for a black male president or a white femal president?

Question

The '08 elections approach, and Senators Obama and Clinton are possibly making bids for running the big race. Forget their policies and strange ways, and think about the racial and sex differences. Would America rather have a black male president or a white female president?

Answer 1

I may be wrong, but I think the idea of a white female president scares them less than the idea of a black male president. Hopefully, the majority would look at the issues, and the real qualifications for governing. I say: hopefully - but then, I could be considered a wishful thinker.

Answer 2

I think America is ready for someone who will start pulling back troops from the middle east, perfectly handle crisis in the United States of America, and start working on environment issues. I mean can we sweep our on front porch, before we clean up somebody else's?

Answer 3

It depends on where you go. Interracial communities would probably be more comfortable with black male. Feminized places white female. I agree with the first guy though...look at the policies and solutions and resources and background they present, not at the variable of sex or color

Answer 4

Yes

Answer 5

What about a double minority - both black, and female? That would be interesting...not necessarily Rice (the current Secretary of State), but it could be anybody.

Answer 6

I think that they are ready, but if you ask this question in certain areas of the U.S. you might get a different answer.

Some areas are just more open-minded.
