I still remember reading about the height factor during the Nixon, Kennedy campaign. I was sixteen when the election was held and I recall telling a classmate that Kennedy would win because he was slightly taller, younger and according to the record the taller man had won every presidential election ever held. He immediately informed me that I was “superstitious”, I couldn’t get across to him that it is not superstitious to believe that people who have always elected the taller man will most likely do so again. That was probably the biggest single reason McCain could not win against Obama but very few Americans realize that. The GOP might be better off to just look for the tallest, best looking man they can find who can ACT the part. As for Hillary I still do not believe that the women of America want to see a woman in the white house. Whatever the majority of women want is what we will have because women are the majority of registered voters but I think the ladies still want a man in the presidency.
Women voters who are undecided until just before the election break AGAINST the female candidate 70-30.
I know it’s strange, but it is reality.
