If one does become President, I hope she doesn't do what that astronaut "Lisa Marie Nowak" did. She had high status, was considered intelligent, and let her emotions control her logic.

If one studies the presidents of the past century, it is obvious that it is not intelligence or caring about what is best for the US that is the hallmark of presidential winners.

It's not about "good", it's about emotional appeal; a popularity contest, not what is best for the American people. This is true even though the people do not elect the president, but is elected by politicians: the "electoral college"

With that said, it is very possible that a woman will become president within the next 20 years, if not the next election.
Many women will vote for Hillary simply because she is a woman, as is evidenced by the sexism displayed in this forum by several women and women-wannabes.

Since the politicians themselves are becoming more and more feministic, it is quite possible that a woman will be elected based more on her being woman than being worthy, which is not to mean that a woman could not be worthy, just that in this day and time it is not necessary in order for a woman to advance.

Ah, the eyes of the extra youthful. Lillibut does no longer rule England - she is the sovereign of a democratic state ruled via Parliament. Her powers are very limited. maximum individuals are no longer extraordinary - they are frequently general human beings, yet, on condition that they have a various way of residing and a lots better inhabitants than your united states of america, the low proportion of loonie tunes appear extra. Nah, then - I lost a gamble over Hil triumphing the election - i individually believed that united states of america replaced into extra waiting for a woman than a black guy - no disrespect, yet that replaced into my concept. i individually worked, free of cost, for a woman candidate over the final election, so no one sticks that misogynist line on me - she replaced into the main suitable individual for the interest, that's my purely standards! once I usher relating to the Republic right here, she would be in a position to be my selection for President, and that i've got already got a vp earmarked - no longer me. So - I parent that if the right lady comes alongside, she would be in a position to win the subsequent election. the biggest stumbling block often is the feminist circulate, which, different than for devaluing women individuals's contribution to each element of society, helps and promotes 'regulations' that no sane individual needs. subsequently, they could be an obstruction to any lady candidate because of the fact many might view her as a gadget of feminism. Now - if shall we merely behave like adults right here, and merely start up rather engaged on authentic equality - there could be a raffle for a Ms President - yet no longer a ratbag feminist.

There is a female president in the Phillipines.

Hopefully human beings will learn that both sexes are equal and that if a woman is a president there will be less wars, and soon there will be many women presidents around.

Honey, we will have a female president and believe it or not, it wont be the end of the world. Look at how many other countries have already had female presidents. Maybe you should travel more and find out that there is life outside of the USA.

A female will be president one day, when she receives the majority of the votes. All it will take is a race where there is a superior female candidate, below average male candidates, and enlightened voters...all of which will happen in an election year that follows some incredible scandal commited by the outgoing male president.

Because they don't know how to run a country effectively like a man does. The USA is also not ready for a woman to rule this country because most men are still thinking from the viewpoint of European white men.

Because men are meant to be leaders|

Women are meant to be helpers|


This is not to put women down though, or into an inferior category to men|

It is all about the functions in society and family that are proper to men and women|


Men have their unique gifts and so do women|


Although a woman cannot be a leader per se, she can be an amazing warrior|

She can be an amazing intellectual|


I know two women (they could be sisters of mind) that I love dearly|

They are the most strikingly beautiful women that I have ever seen| (this is not the fake Hollywood beauty or runway model beauty, but the real thing)|

One works in the police department in the special tactical division, and the other is a scholar who studies philosophy and who has an IQ of 150|

They are also virtuous noble women too|


The warrior is a warrior *without a trace of butch|*

The intellectual is an intellectual *without a trace of nerd|*


So the masculine and the feminine sides of human nature each have their own unique beauty, as each is different, and as each are meant to compliment the other and to be helpmates to the other|

Please tell me your kidding with that question... and that little answer crap thing you put. It's not like all the male presidents have done such a good job... A female can and will be president one day. And anyone who thinks differently is just ignorant!!

Sooo...why is America so "special"? There are other countries that have had female rulers, (Britain, for example) and their country didn't fall into the ocean. So which would upset you more, a white woman or a black man in '08? Bet that one's a hard one, huh? Frankly, I'd be happy if either one won, if no other reason than so you could EAT IT!!
