In tough times, Americans in general will want a strong, male image for a leader. Since Obama created a bad taste for black male leaders, the next POTUS will most likely be a strong, white male. Any white male GOP will pummel Obama. Strong female or Cain will also win, but closer margin. Now there are other psych thinkers who look at the Argentine model, where a strong female representing restoration and purification of social values may attract voters to vote for a strong white female. I tend to lean white male POTUS because unlike Argentine women, enough American women have hangups with Palin and Bachman while American men voters do not. Just my 2 cents.

I have the same gut feeling, and that is why I think Rick Perry has the best chance of overcoming this regime.

Maybe he’ll declare today.

I stayed in the stock market at end of week expecting as “Rick Perry” surge on Monday.

Maybe younger women have a problem with being jealous of Palin. But it is a little-known fact that the average T-partier is not some snaggle-tooth redneck man, but rather a middle-aged woman with nearly-grown kids, probably some college and work experience.

We know a leader when we see one. We've known a lot of women leaders in our own communities and churches. Frankly, women already run most things because the men are opting out. I'm tired of eager-to-please men like Pawlenty and Romney. Sarah's my first choice.

I hope you’re wrong about that; for me and people I associate with that is definitely not the case. We see the Kenyan as a hater of America, not as a black man. But then again we’re only a handful of Americans.
