If Hilliary is elected she will be head of our military. Are we ready for a woman first general?

Question

In the Middle East where women are considered second, Will that make our country and our armed forces look weak? Do you think even the Musilums that are on our side will look down upon us?

Answer 1

Who cares, if Hilliary is elected our society will be in ruins anyway.
She is Bush and Bill Clinton and Cheney all mixed together with a noxious perfume smell.

And look at the choices they made!

Answer 2

Since the Middle East pretty much hates our guts tight now, I think that would not be nearly as much of an issue as you are making it out to be. When most the world looks down on you, who cares if a few look down a little more. Besides, the Congress is the body that holds the actual powers of war. The president can only send in temporary policing forces. We don't just have a single person in charge of our military, we have many.

Answer 3

Personally I don't care for Hillary or any of the Democratic Contenders, but the fact that she is a Woman has absolutely no factor in whether I would vote for her.

Secondly, whether or not we look "weak" in the eyes of the middle east will have to do with how we handle the war in Iraq, NOT the gender of our President.

People make such a big deal about the first Woman, First Black Man, first Mormon, etc.

IT DOESN'T Matter, we live in the 21st century, look at the canidate and what they stand for, what they do and don't support. Nothing else matters.

Answer 4

She wouldn't be a woman first general, she would be commander in chief. I don't think it would be wise to cater to the backward ways of other countries or even worry about their response. She won't be going to battle and she'll have generals to run the military just like every other president. That is, if she becomes president.

Answer 5

Ms. Clinton is not elected yet. She hasn't even won her party's nomination. If she does become President, she will no be a general. She will be our commander-in-chief.

She will not make our military weaker, just because she's our President. Over the long run, only history will tell what her policies do to the strength of our military.

Answer 6

Point 1. as President of the United States she will have a Rank higher than a "First-General", what ever that is supposed to mean.

Point 2; in your "the Middle East" comment, I presume you are referring to the Arab World, as women in Israel and in the Israeli Military, command respect.

Point 3. You are confusing a religious term "Muslim" with racial term "Arab", as traditionally, in all sects and Arab Nations, women are considered as possessions or there just to serve menfolk.

Point 4, before trying to become a Troll do some basic research.

Answer 7

Women been fighting so whats new, women dying for our country ever day I don't care what any Muslim have to say there women stand behind them but we stand beside our men and we fight with them side by side and we have things to say and will be heard we will not be in the shadows of men that they may lead us down any dark road we have eyes to see and will also be leaders look at us, with out us this country would be nothing.

Answer 8

I think her plan to run from Iraq will make most Muslims on our side look down on America more than the fact that she is a woman. I am probably biased, but a Democrat being in charge of the armed forces period, will make them look weaker in the eyes of an enemy, regardless of gender.

Answer 9

What is this first general you speak of? Are you trying to say commander in chief? I'm guessing that you didn't pass American Government in HS?

Answer 10

Read up on Boadicea. And Queen Elizabeth I. And, for that matter, Katherine the Great.
