Sadly - YES.
Those are the people who have no jobs and sit home answering the Clinton polls all the time. Scary!

Absolutely. And there will be people who won't vote for them for the exact same reasons.
It is unfortunate, but in many ways, our political system has become little more than a glorified American Idol. We don't seem to take the time to even look at a given candidates experience and position on the issues, much less compare them with the others in the race. Instead, we decide who to support and vote for by their gender, their skin color, their party affiliation, their charisma, or even the way that they are portrayed in the media.

There will be plenty of people who will vote for both of them for these reasons. There will also be plenty of people who will vote for them just because they are Democrats without listening to what they have to say. And Hilary will get sooooo many votes just because Bill's still so popular some places.
I think they'll lose an equal number of votes for exactly the same reasons though.

I think so. I don't know of any other qualification that either of them have other than the woman, black thing.
The funny thing is that if Obama were a Republican, the same people who are going ga-ga over him would be calling him an Uncle Tom.

Sure, and many will not vote for them for the same reason. They'll vote for a white guy because he's not a woman or a black man.

Surely, there will be some, but a vote for Condoleeza Rice will satisfy both types of voters you have mentioned without compromising National Security or the integrity of the office. Hopefully, she will run for President.
GOD BLESS THE USA!!

Yes, just as there are people who will vote against them for the same reasons.

Probably, but most will try to pick the best candidate for them. I don't think in modern America that most will either vote for or against these people based on race or gender.

Yes and yes. And there will be people who will vote for either simply because they are Democrats.

Probably so.
I'd be voting for one of them because I think either one is preferable to any of the Republican alternatives.
