would you vote for a black or female president ? why or why not ?

Answer 1

look, your asking this from a simple perspective..

if i dont look into the matter deeply... yes, i have nothing against either one of them, blacks nor women...

however, the question is just a propaganda stunt that attacks ones feelings about the subject in order to gain support... people who feel strongly about the civil rights issues wouldnt want to seem like they are betraying the people they support, so they feel pressured into voting for a black/female president...

im not falling for it.. however, im not jumping to the other side of the stick just because of this attack...

would i vote for a black or female president? why would i dwell on my possible future presidential votes when theres a VERY imperitive presidential vote coming up that i need to think about...

unless, by black, you mean Barack Obama.. then i think a better question would be:
"Would you vote for Barack Obama?"

and by female, you mean Hillary Clinton..

I would vote for a woman in the future.. assuming their is one that actually deserves the job..
Will i vote for Hillary Clinton, now?
No.
Why?
Because shes a female. (not solely for this reason, but this is certainly one of the top 3 reasons..)
Am i being hypocritical? Nope.

With the crisis in the Middle East, the last thing America needs is a FEMALE president.

Sometimes, i dont think some Democrats even know whats going on in the world today...
Do they even know the people America is fighting today?
Do they even know anything about the people America is fighting today?

America is at war against religiously fanatical muslims.

America is at war against religiously fanatical muslims that believe woman's rights are acts against their holy lord, a lord they are willing to strap bombs on themselves, and fly commercial planes into massive towers for... Allah.

America is at war with a nation (not a country or even a specific group of people, but millions of people mutually allied by similar goals) that condemns woman who dont obide by men strictly as, they say, Allah tells them to.

America is at war with a nation of fanatical muslims that believe woman in America are unforgivable sinners for.. being free pretty much.. and believe men in America are unforgivable sinners for allowing woman do such evil acts against Allah...

America is at war with a nation that seeks to "liberate" the world from their current leadership and replace it with Allah's teachings...

America is at war with a nation that has recently assassinated the only woman in Parliament in Pakistan because she was a woman that was involved with politics...

If america was to elect a woman president...

Lets just say.. our enemy MAY just grow a LITTLE BIT bigger then we expected...



But that doesnt question people and manipulate you into buying their vote... its not "the democrat way"..

Answer 2

Neither, they both want to be the first into the presidency. What a disgrace to the "Declaration of Independence". It was signed by our forefathers, not fore mothers. As for the Afro-American, how long do you think his term will last, honestly? He will probably be the fastest president(if elected) ever, to be sworn in and shot down in the same day or the same year. No, I'm not a racist but, people out there are just not going to let it happen. There will be an attempt on his life. I feel this, wholeheartedly.

Answer 3

I could come up with scenarios for a "definite" yes but unfortunately, for a "definite" no too. If I was to say I'd vote for whomever was most qualified whether that be man/woman, white/black that would be too easy an answer. If a woman ran, was the most qualified due to education and experience but would cause a division within the country I might choose another candidate. Then you could say I wouldn't vote for a woman. If I thought a woman would not get the respect needed from foreign governments because of their intolerance toward women...I might choose another candidate. If I voted for a black man running for President but I knew he could not win and would draw votes away from another who had my political intentions...then I would not vote for that black man.
There is no simple answer for a complicated question in a very complicated time. I would hope I would vote for the best person for our country whether they be black/white - man/woman but
I could not swear by it.

Answer 4

Race and sex don't influence me - the political platforms are the most important things to look at. However, I am influenced by the candidates religious beliefs. Personally, I would not vote for a muslim any more than I'd vote for an atheist or agnostic. I feel that our country was founded upon a belief in God, hence "One Nation Under God". I think the further we drift from our founding father's beliefs the worse this country will get. Just my opinion, but you did ask, right?

Answer 5

If a black, female or black female were the best candidate , I sure would. I'd even vote for a white guy if they ever find an honest one.

Answer 6

The sex or race is unimportant as long as they have a vision that creates wealth in the world. It would be nice if they were at least as conservative as JFK or MLK. Too bad neither party will measure up to that level. Would also be nice if they could think outside the box.

Answer 7

Yes I would vote for either one. Being female or black has nothing to do with it. It never has, despite what mankind has believed.
I have to say that I am dismayed by the entire government and how it isn't working for any of us. It is all about big money and power and not about the average joe.
Can Obama or Hilary change that? I doubt it.

Answer 8

When voting for people I do not care what sex, race, or religion they are. I vote for what they can and will do in the office. I pay attention to what they think about taxes, war, the economy, etc. Their sex or race mean nothing to me. Will they make a good president, that is what's important.

Answer 9

I'm a white male. Yes i would vote for a Black or a women if they had the same beliefs I have. Hillery does not. Colin Powell does

Answer 10

Yes, I would vote for either if they are qualified and I like the platform that they run on, I will just concider them to be like any other candidate and try to determine what is best for America before I vote.
