The First Female President of America
That's a fairly bold statement considering there's an awful lot of variables to consider. One, it's been said throughout history that any form of government has often risen and fallen over course of world history, and ours has been the longest running form of government thus far. Therefore, we're long overdue to a severe change in our government structure that we may not even have the same type of government by the time 2050 hits. And even if we do manage to keep our government relatively intact for that long, then there's other variables to consider. One, Hillary Clinton has shown a lot of interest in the Presidency before. Granted, she lost the Democratic nomination to O'Bama, but who's to say she'll lose the Democratic nomination after O'Bama's presidency is over. After all, are we really going to assume she's given up on her presidential aspirations? I believe she'll run again.
Not saying she'll win, but it's a possibility. As I said before, there's too many variables to consider here. However, you might be right. After all, one of the main things that hurt Hillary Clinton in her election was that some criticized her for either being too anti-feminist or too feminist that she was constantly under scrutiny. Something that I thought was extremely unfair if you ask me, as I certainly think she would've made a better president than O'Bama. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Besides, how do you know O'Bama's daughter even has political aspirations? For all we know, she might just decide to become a professional athlete, as O'Bama just loves sports!
over the years, my prediction and my dreams always come true,
as i said, I might not be around to witness my prediction, however, "Let wait and see(
it written in the stars)
George H.Bush, we need a female President(
good one dude...really good one...
Yeah, but it would be a prestigious honor to witness something new in American history, as we never had a female president before. Now that would be something. Besides, who knows what will happen years from now. As for your logic about Hitler being a woman, and the two phony x-chromosomes thing...I don't see what that has to do with this topic, but cheers anyways.
edit: besides, don't you want to be alive to witness history, so you can tell your grandchildren someday that you were among the first to witness the first woman being elected into office. Wouldn't that be fun? I know it gives me a great pleasure knowing that if i do have grandchildren someday that I can tell them that I was alive to witness the first minority president, as it's a part of american history.I agree more with Evan.
And I personally think it's at once silly, nonproductive, and ...actually just wrong to wanna see someone put into high Office just because they're considered in minority status.
History just for the sake of making history isn't good.
I believe a President should be a man. The male gender was meant to be leaders and caretakers of the women and children's interests.
But then, considering the one we have in there now, if inexperienced people like him are the only options, then a woman would probably do just as well. And anyway it depends on what kind of person the woman is, just as it depends on what kind of person the man is.... Case in point----Hillary could've done all the underhanded, dumb things Obama's done!!
But yeah if I had to choose a woman to vote for, I hope the options would include Bachmann or someone like her.I guess in the near future no female who is going to run for President is going to get your vote.....however, never underestimate the power of a woman.

Well Evan if you had read my posts with Brenda, then you would've realized that I wasn't implying or saying we should vote a for a woman as president just for the sake of voting a woman to be president. Nor was I suggesting that O'Bama's run to get elected was perfectly justified based solely on the factor of him being a minority. No, I was just saying, as a fan of history, it's an amazing thing to witness is all I was getting at.
However, like you, I do feel that electing a person primarily on who's the best candidate for the job should be the number one priority. In fact, as I told Brenda, I actually voted for John McCain in the last election based solely on his military background, as I felt we needed a President with previous military experience in office; in light of the current war on terror situation. However, since he obviously lost, I was just saying how great it was historically to witness the first minority being elected president. Granted, that's a rather optimistic way to look at things but as I said before, I'm somewhat of a fan of history, so it's kind of a treat to me.

So then only mean are meant to be leaders?
But you just said the options should not include a woman because only men are intended to be leaders (?)

YOU can help make it happen!
(of course, if they were to win, there still wouldn't be a woman in the oval office)New Zealand has had two Heads Of States,so its time the USA caught up
- too funny
No, one head to see where its been, and the other to see where its going.
Still gigglin.
Jenny Shipley was the first Prime Minister ,next came Helen Clarke
(Incidently Ms Clarke is now Chairwoman in Washington for United Nations).
Current Prime Minister is John Keys
(The Ladies taking a break)Eaglekiwi love the sound of this, Women rules, it good to see women is good for more than making babies, and taking the back seat while the men drive off into the wrong directions, However, back to the subject .... the first female President.. of this country is in the making(
"it written in the stars"Every good thing in its right time
This probably had alot to do with the surge of Kate Sheppard (Womens Suffrage Movement) ultimately affecting the staunchly held male gender position in society
New Zealand in 1893 is often said to be the first "country" in the world to give women the right to vote.
Shaking off the male chauvanistic ego takes time I suppose.
However there have been some great past Presidents as well.
Ok now my mind is drifting to some jokes..time to log off hehe..
