Yes, I really wasn't speaking about her capabilities, just the fact that she is allowed to shed tears, as the NY and Washington DC male leaders did at 9/11.
I think by now most people realize women are capable of leadership positions. Maybe not all women are, just as all men are not capable.
For instance, if Condi ran for a governor's position in the future, she would have no problem winning the election. There are other capable women out there who would perform well also. But there are fewer examples to point to-- since for decades those roles were limited to men only.
I guess we can agree to disagree :)
Maybe the problem is that we have too many politicians running the country and not enough leaders. All the politicians think about is their next election, their polls, their blowback, the press. It is hard to have a center, a place where you can make decisions, when you are "all about me" and the next election.
