Whether it's Hilary or Obama...America will not accept a president who isn't a rich white male.

Rich white males are killing our country...please quit taking your bigoted beliefs and pretending other people share them. Republican bigotry does not represent most of America

i'm one democrat who basically ought to ought to go over to the darkish part if Hillary gets the nomination. John Edwards it plenty extra desirable on women persons's themes than Hillary and that's somewhat unhappy. For now, i would be helping Edwards, yet i'm hoping an extraordinarily sturdy female candidate turns up in 2012.

I don't know about Obama.
But if you want my opinion Hillary is a sure loser. None of the Republicans will vote for her and they make up about 35% of the voters. Hillary will polarize Republicans and they will have a good turn out. Democrats make up 35% of the voters but there about a fourth of them who really don't like her and will vote against her even if she is a Democrat. That brings the total up to about 43% that will vote and vote against Hillary. The independants too have mixed feelings and make up the final 30% of the voters. If she doesn't get at least 80% of the independants the Democrats will lose again. It could be she would win the propular vote but lose the electoral college.
The USofA is ready for a woman President. I just don't think they are ready for Hillary.

Ordinarily I would say you're right, but after 8 years under such a repellent president as the one we're saddled with now, I think America is ready to try something new.

Because Democrats just love to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory and the Unions are way over represented among those who make decisions within the Democratic Party - unions don't like change and won't support any politician thinking outside the box.

Because it is possible that your tunnel-vision view of all things male and white no longer represents main stream American thinking and that it is actually your minority view which now belongs to the ever shrinking number of bigoted voters in America.

The premise of your question and subsequent comment is insulting to anyone with an ounce of integrity. I doubt you're bright enough to have intended this, but that's beside the point.
Hillary lacks the honesty, respect and integrity to be electable, whereas Obama lacks the experience.
Nothing more, nothing less.

Only if people like you keep thinking that way. I think if enough americans support one candidate, they will win. Go OBAMA! I'm sick of rich white males making themselves richer.

I think you're right. Democrats will shoot themselves in the foot on this nomination, and lose an election that should have been rightfully theirs.

They ran a rich, white male in Kerry. He lost. Maybe if they had someone with some real ideas and not just more recycled socialism they would do better.
