Sure. Polls have shown that Condoleeza Rice has a lot of support.\n\nI was shocked that Al Sharpton didn't do better in the primary.

If Ms. Rice decided to run I would be PROUD to vote for her. I think she would make a FAR better choice not only for the first female president, but the first African American president. She understands how strong this country needs to be and although she doesnt believe in her ability...like all great leaders....the PEOPLE do. If Hillary Rob 'em Clinton even gets the nomination now....she will be LUCKY. She is too out there now.

I think the American people are ready for a woman president. I wouldn't VOTE for Hiliary Clinton but I would vote for Condelezza Rice. I think she would make a great president. She would also make a milstone for the United States becasue she would be the first woman president and the first african american president. I hope she runs for office.

I wish people would vote based simply on the way a candidate thinks, but unfortunately that doesn't happen. I would vote for someone based on what they have done in the past and what I think they can do for the future; regardless of race, religion, gender or sexual orientation. But most people don't think like that. They are scared of things they think they don't understand. But what they don't understand, really, is that people are all the same under the skin color. It's not the color of a persons skin that makes them who they are, it's their actions.\n\nI think it's possible, hopefully in the near future.\n\nWhat do you mean, though, by making it a black house? Do you mean that the new president will bring his friends with him? Isn't that what they all do?

Well 1st of all I do question why are we even using the term African-American on Blacks that weren't even born in Africa.\n\nJesse Peterson who is Black himself said it best when he said "I am not an African-American, I am an American."\n\nAs far as Black president I would like to see either Alan Keyes or Condoleeza Rice as President.\n\nAlthough heck if we had to go for someone in Hollywood then definetly Denzel Washington.\n\nOk I disagree with the fact Morgan Freeman did support Kerry for President in 2004 but I gotta say I am imprssed though with a lot of his intellegence and respectful behavior though :)\n\nFor instance I liked the points he raised on how wrong it is to confine the History of Blacks to just one Month because Black History is part of American History.\n\nIt's like yeah I prefer to look at figures from History Black and White not based on what Skin Color they had but based upon who they were and what they did.\n\nGeorge Washington Carver is a great inspiration to a lot of people for example and seriously his accomplishments by the grace of God are more important than Skin color.\n\nI would like to see a Black person become President someday but I don't want such a person to be elected based on Skin color, I want the person elected because he/she is the person for the job.\n\nFor instance in my State Michigan a Black man named Keith Butler is running but I decided that I was going to check things on different Republicans running for U.S. Senate to see exactly who I should support such as where candidates stood on the issues.\n\nIt appears that yes Keith Butler and I do see eye to eye on enough issues for me to decide im supporting him for U.S. Senate.

Don't think it's gonna happen, at least not in the US in the near future. Most people at heart are still  racists, tough they may deny it. Unfortunate, but many of em wouldn't want the off-spring of slaves to rule over their good ole white country.\n\nst

We need a President that won't bullsh*t, mislead, or disregard the constitutional rights of the people.  Is doesn't matter what sex or race or religion they happen to be.  I can't think of any good candidates to suggest - male or female but I added a link that might help settle the debate between your Uncles. It is the website of THE CENTER FOR AMERICAN WOMEN AND POLITICS.

I know nothing about him, so I would need to do some research on him.  His skin color is not relevant to me.  If I agreed with his views and he was qualified for the office that he might run for, I would consider voting for him.

Yes, I honestly do believe there will be a woman president.  Not because she's a woman though, and not because she may or may not be riding on the coattails of her husband the former president.  It's really inevitable.  And the people that reference countries like England, it doesn't really compare, 1. because they're used to a ruling woman with the monarchy and 2. we're a relatively young country compared to European ones.  Not that that's an excuse, but the country obviously hasn't been ready for it!  Also, no women have stepped up to run!  The closest we've gotten was Geraldine Ferraro, and she was running with that imbecile Mondale!  I hope people don't vote for a woman just because she's a woman and I hope that a "block" as one answerer mentioned does not result in an election of a specific type of individual.  A woman will win when she has the principles and values that the majority of Americans will vote for and she actually RUNS for President!!  PS - I am a woman, and would like to see it, but I wont vote for one just because of that!

Personally, I think the man is brilliant and I wish he could be the next President of the United States...........but I don't think most Americans would elect a black man yet........although I think they would come closer to electing a black man than a white woman.\n\nI'm saddened that George Bush has not only taken our country down in the past 8 years but he has also changed our reputation in the world to other countries.  Our reputation in the world used to be one of freedom and land of opportunity to anyone willing to work hard.  George Bush has changed that reputation to one of "World Bully."   I'm not surprised that most people in the world hate us.\n\nI think Barck Obama could change all that.  I think he could bring back all the things we love about our country and go a long way in mending bad feelings around the world.\n\nIf he does run for President, I hope he doesn't choose Hillary Clinton as a running mate.  Although I'm in the minority of people who actually like Hillary, I know that nothing could make Obama lose quicker than putting Hillary on his ticket with him.\n\nAnyway, back to your question.  I think he is a brilliant man with solid morals and a cool head.  Just what our country needs.\n\nSincerely,\nRobin_in_Tennessee

I would actually love to see both a Black man and a woman run for office at the same time, since this has never happened in the history of the us presidential elections, I think we all need to be open minded and think that both a woman or a black man are perfectly capable of runiing this country.  I also think this could happen as early as the 2008 elections with Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama on the ticket.

Probably female.  Hilary Clinton.  Nothing against blacks, just not aware of any that are planning on running next time.

If there were a black person who was qualified for the job.  Right now there doesn't seem to be. (If you aren't qualified you need connections like Bush) \n\n Many Americans would've voted for Colin Powell had he run way back then.\n\n I think if there were to be a black president though he would have to be a republican.  I don't see a black democrat making it.  \n\n On top of that, the odds of them getting killed while in office will be higher then for other presidents.  \n\nThere will probably be a Hispanic president before there is a black president, and a minority president before there is a woman.  \n\nI don't think it really matters who is in office at this point, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, male, female I don't see any real change coming anytime soon.  \n\nI'd personally like to see a Native American president.  \nIf we are going to elect anyone based on race, that to me would seem the most correct.

Who's all down for a black president

J.C. Watts was the last one elected, remember.But, how many black republicans running for congressional office do you see? Blacks are statring to ebb away from the democratic party slowly, but they have to endure cultural pressure everytime they think outside of the democratic box. They get called things like "uncle tom" and "traitor" because they have a different political philosophy. To me that is not only a shame for the black culutre, but it hurts diveristy of thought. \n\nAnd the funny thing is that most blacks are conservative and are more inline with Republican values. Everything from the sanctity of marriage to school votures. On more issues then not, the black culture can be found in agreement with conservatives. \n\n But placing color (and gender) aside, we should NEVER vote for people based on their skin color. As a great man once said, we shouldn't judge people by the color of their skin, but on the content of their character. Is that so bad, or is King wrong? Republicans have voted for black people, they have held offices in the senate and in congress, and they have held some of the offices in the white house (Rice and Powell). Making such uneducated statements about half the country only makes you a bigot (and PLEASE look up the definition of the word bigot, it may change your life).\n\n\nGodspeed
