I suppose a nation constantly at war with someone would need a large standing army.

That was sarcasm, by the way.

I like socialized medicine. Better than privatized, wouldn't you agree?

If she does win(a very large if there) I'm moving to england

the vast majority of people who vote are white males so they elecet the same now if a perfectly capable african american, or hispanic or native american, etc male or female shows up I'll vote for them but I don't consider Hillery capable of teaching small children finger painting much less leading our nation.

Sides just because she's a woman doesn't mean women will vote for her that would just ruin the election process

and now I leave you with Colin Powell in '08

I think in the very next presidential election we have a good chance of a woman being elected. The majority of Americans are women not men despite what you think. Also Hilary Clinton is thinking of running in the next election. She could very well win.

I hope not. I can think of a few women who I'd like to see run, but Hillary is about last on the list.

The vast majority of voters are white males and will continue to elect white males to power.

Why would the ethnic background or sex of candidates matter? You should vote for who is best qualified, not because you want to see a minority in office.

Besides, we'll never see a Native American as president - at least not in this lifetime. Impossible.
