Damn well would have to be the right women.
With hillary as commandress-in-chief, it may be hell, but for her it will be very lucrative hell. Steinem may very well have just said that it’s time for a female multi-billionaire.
Since the child of any foreigner married to a citizen is eligible, or depending on how the 14th A is read perhaps simply the child of two foreigners, we should probably think about a female CIC, just to be fair.
(Don't worry about the founding fathers concern with and intent to avoid a CIC who has spent his or her entire life with one or more foreign parents, one of which may also be the dominant, controlling figure in the household and very loyal to his or her native country..."just be happy".)
The qualifications for a female ought to include among others:
1. Proficiency with firearms.
2. Happily married to a man.
3. Either her public record reveals support of the military or she, or someone in her family she holds in esteem has served in the military.
Sure that is old school, but old school has a place; see current nation-wide student achievement test results, and Common Core.
I don’t know, how is Carly Fiorina going to vault to the top at this point?
Herself is certainly NOT the Commander-in-Chief material that others have made her out to be.
Jane Byrne, Mayor of Chicago, 1979-1983, had a similar meteoric rise, battling as a crusader and reformer, but she managed to blow all her early advantage in a very short while. The reform mayor who once vowed to rid City Hall of corruption found her office accused of having ties to organized crime. She insisted she was “clean as a whistle” and that her accusers were practicing McCarthyist “guilt by association” tactics.
The charge against the mayor was leveled by three of the city’s top policemen, who were demoted in a major departmental shakeup. They said two of the major’s top political aides, who had since resigned, tried to stop a police crackdown on the mob.
Turns out, Mayor Byrne was unprepared to govern, and she had made some really bad choices is her closest associates, through her husband, Jay McMullen, who put her in contact with Charlie Swibel.
Charlie Swibel was bad news, as the controversial chairman of the Chicago Housing Authority, and while one of his landmarks, the Marina Towers (which resemble two huge corn cobs) is an iconic part of the Chicago skyline, he was known as a “fixer”, and his business dealings were as shady as his political horse-trading. Charlie Swibel was a favorite target of Chicago newspaper editorials because of his ownership of West Side slum and Madison Street Skid Row properties. And he milked them unmercifully.
Mayor Jane and Charlie Swibel did turn the CHA into their own little fiefdom and bank account, including some deals with an urban ghetto known as “Cabrini-Green”, notorious for its seriously bad mismanagement. Also, Charlie Swibel was a little casual about paying his taxes, both real estate and reporting of income.
Herself and Jane Byrne were so much alike in so many ways.
A competent, intelligent, trustworthy, honest, moral, Conservative, Constitution obeying, America loving woman would be fine with me, but shrillary scores a big fat 0% and will never get my vote and Fiorina is just a smidgen better than shrillary.
