Hillary Clinton: U.S. 'Impatient' for Woman Prez
Americans are growing 'impatient" as they wait for a woman to be elected president, 2008 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said Saturday night.
"People are saying,' Well, at least we're ready,'" Clinton told interviewer Jane Pauley, as the two held a public chat for charity in San Francisco.
"There's a feeling that it's time," she added.
Then, in quotes picked up the New York Sun, the former first lady said she detected "a certain impatience" to see a female president following the election of women to similar roles in other countries.
Despite Mrs. Clinton's claims, a Gallup poll found last week that 51 percent of Americans had already made up their minds not to vote for her.
The top Democrat offered the comments after Pauley noted that President Bush had recently said she'd make a "formidable" candidate.

I don't believe we women are so pathetic that we have to be prez to qualify our equality.
Man or woman it doesn't matter as long a they are a hetero-sexual conservative.
She can "detect" that, but not that Bubba was dipping into the intern pool.
Nonsense. There is no sense of impatience for a woman president. If there was, Mrs. Davis' last television show would've done better in the ratings.
If anything, there's horror at the thought that Hillary could be president.
Wait, why am I surprised she said that. Libers have never lived in the real world...
The Former Twelfth Lady would be wise to study the lives and careers of Robert Kennedy and Huey Long.
She's a canidiate? Is this confirmed?
That leaves out Hillary in more ways than one...
"There is no sense of impatience for a woman president. "
No, not really, but I would vote for Dr. Condi Rice.
WILL.
MOVE.
Exactly...
Hillary Clinton: U.S. 'Impatient' for Woman Prez
Well if its her...
not really.
Not sure I agree. Unlike liberals and many neo-conservatives there is a paleo conservative position that says that some jobs are just better off being left to men, as they traditionally have been. Like, say, POTUS. I'm not saying I agree but I don't dismiss it out of hand.
C'mon Hillary, we dare ya! Make our day.
Billy Boy must be sweating in his tent. He won't survive her run for the White House.
She can't win unless she gets the sympathy vote. Even then... it is doubtful.
Someone on the mold of Maragaret Thatcher would pass the test.
America is not ready and neither is the rest of the world for what it's worth.
Well .. I'm a women and I say Hellary is full of it
Oh,she can detect lots of things.For example,she was able to detect that it was good idea to send Bernie Nussbaum and Maggie Williams over to Vince Foster's office after his death was announced.
