The bottom line is America is not ready to elect a woman president. Men would turn out heavy against her heavily on both sides, and a good number of women wouldnt vote for her. Hispanics alone are still very patriarchal and would never conceive of a woman president. And does anyone think those coal miners and steel workers are going to look her in the eyes and believe she is empathetic to their needs? And I'm not even begining to talk about foreign affairs and waging the battle againts terrorism. The military would completely reject her. When a woman does finally win, it will have to be a conservative one. It's much less threatening to Americas core ideals.
Excellent points!
I strongly believe that there are some roles that are not meant for women and vice versa. God didn't create us differently just to have diversity. ; *)
Unless we have a Maggie Thatcher waiting in the wings, I don't see a female prez in the near future.
I would not vote for a woman president unless I knew for a fact she was of iron will. In fact, when I vote (and I know this is bad) and am faced with a long list of judges I know little about--I simply vote the women out. And I am a woman.
