Former President Barack Obama stated during a discussion at Salem State University with historian Doris Kearns Goodwin that he believes global governments would be "better" if women were put in charge of every country for a two-year period.

"Even when I was president I sometimes fantasized about if you put women in charge of every government for like two years and then just kind of saw all right how things going," Obama said. "I have a strong belief that things would they wouldn't be perfect, but they'd be better. I'm confident about that."

"I really do so," Obama added.

Right, right. I see the hordes of women defending the child strangler woman, and I'm sure they'd make the world a much better place too.

My eyes can't roll back far enough for this BS.

HOW WOULD HE KNOW?

HIS “WIFE” IS UNDER SCRUTINY OVER TGHT BODY REAL SEX

HIS 2 “KIDS” NEED A DNA TEST TO PROVE THEY ARE BIOLOGICALLY CONNECTED.

Obozo has lost his mind or what was left of it.

I'm told that his is a fantastic speaker. But it almost seems like English is not his native language.

Depends on the woman. Margaret Thatcher -— you bet! Hilary Clinton, Michelle Wu, Kamala Harris -— no way!

[Sarah Barracuda]

The same women who celebrate a baby killer in Massachusetts, yeah I dont think so..the same women who support abortion til the moment of BIRTH and beyond, yeah I dont think so. Maybe we should let dogs and cats run the country, it would be PURRfect

Says the guy who beat Hilary in the primaries

“He” is all over the airwaves. It’s his midterm campaign. Everything he put together, continuing through and after the Biden administration, is crumbling

Trump was supposed to be a caricature. The media was going to perpetuate that. It’s been reduced to raw feed from imbed cameras 6 weeks before the election.

SCOTUS is forced to say the obvious last minute-“quit fooling around, of course illegals can’t vote. Of course people ushered into the country illegally by a corrupt government are illegal. And can’t vote

The Muslim plan to take over has been exposed

He’s out there stuttering, looking like a girl, acting like a girl, with his creepy rat fingers, women are great

That’s the base. The audience of the View.

Clinging to the Titanic. Trying to stay out of jail…er GITMO

[WhiteHatBobby0701]

As long as real leaders own the pets.

[MtnClimber]

Can Zer0 even define what a woman is?

[Sacajaweau]

They’ll have mandatory trans in every sports...mandatory trans teachers in every school, abortion and kill your kids to the age of six...

[A_perfect_lady]

But what IS a woman? I thought we no longer knew!
