Sorry, I don't tend to believe that stereotypes are accurate. I think that there is no intrinsic difference between men and women that would make one gender be a better President than the other. It is about the individual, their strengths and weaknesses, their abilities and ideas, their education and values, that would make someone a good President.

NO a woman should not be President of the U.S.A because the man has always been the head of the house hold and the USA and a woman is not strong emotionally like a man. But woman are strong in other ways.

Anyone who has common sense can serve as the United States president, because the system is already in place.
It would have been a totally different story when we were first being founded.
If queen Elizabeth can do it when Great Britain was in major **** with the other European countries I'm sure Hillary can do it

The gender in a women or men is not an obstacle to change
the way government has been run in the past but yes we have more potential because we have left our mark as a positive figure for Change Unity Peace and Equality Towards what is right.towards what is written in fine print in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United states of America an as you analyze your objective you are making us women stronger just by the input of your question which generates more power to a common goal.
And to restore a government you have to really see the big picture from were you are standing and from were someone El's is looking,
To restore the faith in the people takes more
positive thinking and great ideas to recapture
the path to freedom land
were people live in sobriety and Respect
if we don't stand on a fundamental leader and respect
thy name race or religion we have lost our path and we need to seriously think what are we really doing and why ?for what purpose and is these the way it was written to live.

What is between our legs is not what makes us leaders - it is what we have going on in our heads and our hearts. Women hold all other sorts of leadership rolls, so why wouldn't we be able to be President? The only thing that holds us back is people's old-school notions of women being weak which is, of course, wrong. Women are tougher than men are sometimes so, yes, a woman would be more than capable of leading our country. I think it's time, actually. The old rich boys need to move out and the new blood needs to come in to lead this country again.

There is no reason why a woman can not be president. Plenty of American women have already achieved lofty positions: supreme court justice, CEO, attorney general, etc., etc. The time will come when there is a viable female candidate that will be very likeable and well respected.
Hillary is neither likeable nor respected; in fact, she is probably the 2nd most polarizing person in the world behind Bush.

There are (in my opinion) no reason at all that a woman can't be as effective as a man being president. Respect comes from what and how you say something, not what you wear.
Some stereotypes that would hinder a woman president would include:
...soft on the military
...emotional
Some stereotypes that would help a woman president would include:
... organization skills
...negotiate before fighting
...team building

I am sure i'll get flamed for this but what the heck. What is the average age for a president? Usually between 45-60 right? When do women hit menopause? Between 45-60. Do you really want a strung out menopausal women to have that much power? Believe me. My mom is in the middle of menopause and it is terrifying

Of course a woman could do the job.
Show me one that is the best qualified of all the candidates and I'll vote for her.
That sure isn't Hillary!

As long as that woman was a protector and defender of the Constitution. Pretty much the same as any man.
