Who would make the best woman president?

Any women who would solve the health care problem, the education problem, the homlessness problem. Any women who puts the welfare of the country over trying to get elected. In fact any person with these qualities man or woman would make a good president but unfortunately no american would ever vote for them. That is why I didn't vote last election.\n\nThat is why I would not vote for clinton, bush, or rice because they are so concentrated with their image they are not truely looking out for the american people. They just say what you want to hear and sadly it is working.

Forunately we live in a nation where we don't have to pick either/or. . .we can have both.  Hillary for President, Barrack for Vice President or Barrack for President & Hillary for VP.  It would be nice to have a female president though.

Definitely.  It's only a matter of time before that becomes common.  Like any first though she will have to be above and beyond the capabilities of the other candidates.  I think that's going to make a good difference though and it would help the country a lot.  Hillary Clinton I think would be a bad choice as the first woman president because she's already too well known and the media hype would drown out anything she does.

It's not a matter of "should a woman be president." It's not important that we elect a woman, so that we can finally say we did it. What needs to happen is to elect the most effective leader, whether it is a man or a woman. That's not so easy to do. Usually, instead of a leader, we get a politician. A politician is someone who cuts deals, trades influence, and always if it will benefit him or her. That makes politicians self-serving. A leader is someone who does the right thing for the country, whether it is good for him or her personally or not. We haven't had one of those in a long time. Harry Truman 60 years ago. Or maybe John Kennedy 45 years ago.

Hillary Clinton, unless she is divorced by then.  Then it would be Hillary Rodham.  Or Wesley Clark.

but iamgirl, what if the female president was so craptacular that we never got a good one elected because more people became biased against the ability of a woman to hold that position? i'd rather wait for a good one, but if it were two candidates who were about equal, i would vote for the woman instead. unless both candidates were absolutely awful, then i would want to man so women didnt get more misrepresnted.

C. Rice by far!\n\nShe's more intelligent and not known for her mean evilness that Hillary IS and has been talked about by those close to Hillary.\n\nI also think that having the first female AND black u.s. president wouldn't hurt our world image either.\n\nI think the u.s. is ready for such a president... especially one as brilliant as C. Rice.

Eleanor Roosevelt. She was intelligent and she would have been a good president herself, too.

I don't know who the repuglican will be, it really don't matter to me as I will never vote to shoot myself in the foot. But on the democrat side I think Hillary has a chance to be the first woman candidate, and even more possible that she might be the first woman president. She is a strong, intelligent lady that will stand up for what is right. She would have one of the best advisers in the world in her husband, the last legally elected president and the most popular and successful.

I think a woman will be first, I think that Hillary Clinton would be an excellant choice. She has all the attributes, she is smart and in touch with the people, it will be a hard road as the repuglicans hate her so much but I think she can overcome that as more and more repuglican politics is being exposed for what it is, Corrupt.

Hillary would make a fine President and Representative of the female class of America. If anyone has the credentials as a woman it will be Hillary Clinton. Eleanor Roosevelt stood up as a woman of her century, to provide for the poor, and the homeless in our Country, and I believe that Hillary will follow in her footsteps.

Condi Rice would make Hillary look like the dummy everyone wants to think GW is; she's a highly intelligent woman.  I hope she runs for VP behind Guiliani and they would beat Hillary and whoever.

Yes. You will see a woman President in your lifetime.\n\nIt is folly to think otherwise. I wouldn't be surprised if you don't have a choice next time round - Rice or Clinton - take your pick. Can you see any republican better qualified than Rice? She has incredible influence and pwer and knows the Whitehouse like the back of her hand. Can you think of a better known Democrat than Hilary? and she CERTAINLY knows the whitehouse. She lived there for several years.\n\nIn the UK we had Maggie Thatcher. The Germans have a woman. Even the Catholics in Ireland have had a woman, India has had a woman and now Liberia!!!\n\nI know America is backward - heck - it took you years to give up slavery after the rest of the world - but you'll catch up quick! :)

No, I think the right woman would make a good President, black or white, as long as it wasn't Hilary.
