Sad to way a white woman. There is still a lot of backwards bigotry present in the USA that only seems to be growing.

(1) The constitution does not say "all men are created equal." That's the Declaration of Independence. And of course the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses don't use the term "men," they say:
nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Plus, of course, there's the 19th Amendment, allowing women's suffrage.
So, whoops.

But to answer your question, I would say that a minority male is more likely to become president first, because there are more ingrained prejudices about a woman not being able to run a country (i.e. too emotional, couldn't send troops to die, too fickle, etc) among all races than there are about a minority not being fit to run.

easily, the common gross sales for black females is bigger than that for white females. additionally, black adult men have been given the final to vote in the 1860s - females, not till 1920. Why is that, if discrimination against females wasn't a situation? whilst they have been figthing against slavery, better halves have been nonetheless seen property - sometimes overwhelmed or raped, with little or no recourse. study up on a number of the female abolitionists. they often referred to "extending" an identical combat on behalf of females that exchange into already happening on behalf of blacks. have been they only kidding around? merely whiners? looks unlikely. merely as an aside, there are 2.5 circumstances as many damaging whites in this united states of america as damaging blacks. So i'm uncertain that entire "white privledge" element relatively pans out the way people think of it does.

a hispanic woman is my guess...two birds with one stone. And yes, we still have a chance in male society...afterall, it was men who voted to give women the right to vote, and the deciding vote for that was from a congressman who's mother called right before the vote and told him to vote for it, or don't come home. He voted yes. True story

Seeing as the race, or sex, of the President doesn't matter, I hope the one who is President first is the one who will do the best job for the United States.

Yes, most people believe gender of race will play no part in the next election. Put someone who can do the job and who you agree with.

I will vote for the best candidate regardless of either factor.
