How are they not being treated equally? Is a government agency keeping them from entering?

Or do you think that female candidates should not be evaluated and criticized like their male counterparts? Does being treated equally to you mean that criticism shouldnt be allowed?

As for your final question, I dont deal in hypotheticals. They arent real.

I believe Palin would be better than Obama.

You want to name another candidate that has been called unpresidential?

they are not being treated equally because of the attack lines used. If you pay any attention to the attacks on say Mitt they are mostly about policy issues , his flipflopping his term/actions as gov, etc...... the attacks on Palin however are more personal. she is unpresidential, lacking gravitas, ditsy, unintelligent. Nothing is debated about policies or her record. Like leaving AK with a $12 billion surplus.........

What is more “unpresidential” than being a woman? what do you really think Rove is doing when he uses this attack line? the double standard IRT to Palin has been breathtaking to behold and my contention is that the majority of that double standard is do to the fact she is a woman. Not one male governor has been accused of being unpresidential, not one has been accused of lacking gravitas, not one have been criticized for abandoning their kids....of not being a good father, of whining, of lacking intelligence, of being in it for the money, of having a ghostwriter etc.....
