No...I don't think so. I think it's like with a man being president. If they appear weak, then others will view them as weak. If they appear strong, then others will view them as strong. For a woman president, she may have to put forth more effort than a man to appear stong, but it can be done.

She has to reflect the policies of the President.  She is  a traveling "mouth-piece" of the USA President.  She is not allowed to say anything that is not approved of by the President and his advisors.... She is a puppet for the President.  If you can't trust her... it is because she has to reflect the policies that come down to her from the Oval Office.

Actually no. Thomas Jefferson's wife had died before he became president so his daughter was the "First Lady," and later his friend, Dolley Madison took over the duties.\n\n"Several women, other than wives of presidents, have served as first lady. This situation has arisen due to the president being a bachelor or widower, or when the wife of the president is unable or unwilling to fulfill the duties of the first lady herself. In these cases, the position has been filled by a female relative or friend of the president."

Being an abused wife shouldn't preclude anyone from the presidency. After all most American women are abused whether they are married or not. They just carry the plastic smile in public. With her own talent and with the help of the most popular president America has ever had, she will triumph. Better than a cheating, lying, aggressive, money hungry republican any day.

She's not automatically the Speaker.  SHe is currently the minority leader, which makes her a clear choice to be elected once the Congress meets in January.  It is unlikely that they will choose anyone else.

In general a better answer is yes she can, through what is commonly referred to as a QDRO (qualified domestic relations order).  The amount she may or will be entitled to varies by court decision in most cases, she could take none, all, or some.  Sorry for the bad news.  Talk to an attorney.

I concur with the sentiments of the other people who have answered.  As long and the woman is qualified and not Hillary Clinton, then the U.S. is ready for a woman president.  I wouldn't mind seeing Condoleeza Rice and president.

Yes, the right woman who can be a leader and take the abuse of being president...no, I do not believe HC can become president, she has too much baggage

I seriously hope she couldn't. People NEED to have experience working in politics before they should be allowed to run for president. At the very least, she should have to work her way up. Then, I believe she would have a very good chance.

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! :)

So many other countries have a woman as head of state, I don't see why we shouldn't.  If she can get the voters to turn out and vote, then she will be elected.

She may seek a US permanent residency based on such cirumstances and legitimate and Humanity ground, if this is whats wants.\nConsider cosulting an immigration layer.
