I don't believe the US is ready for a woman president. Most men would not vote for one because feminist would use the "victory" to undermind men. Many men that say they wouldn't mind a female president only say so to please woman. To sound "sensative" and "considerate". Woman would not, because they trust men more than they do another women. Woman feel they know too well how other woman are very influenced by inconsitant and hardly controlable emotions and hormones. Most woman stil hold dear their femininity, motherhood, and nurturing. However, the likely female candidates feel woman with this mentality are "holding back the feminist movement". \n\nIn short, men will not vote for anyone that underminds their manhood and role, and woman will not vote for a woman that challenges their womanhood and seeks to reverse the God given roles of men and woman.

i believe that it is possible to see a woman president at some point in my lifetime. many people are saying they think a woman will be elected in the next running... i don't think so. it is difficult to run a nation, i'm sure, but if a woman were president, i believe that people would pick her apart much worse than any male has ever been picked apart.\n\ni am sure that there will not be a president of non-white racial status for a long time to come. certainly not in my lifetime and it's possible that even my childen's children's children won't see it either. even if all the minorities put together, someday overrule the white population and elect a non-white president, there will be at least one white citizen that will follow through on assasination. it's horrible to say, i know... but i think it's very true! it will be a long time til there is a non-white VP also.

I would not want to be president of america. For many reasons. I am a female and don't think women should have that much power, because(not meaning to be rude) we would screw up. I think no matter what happens in the economy, the president is blamed. He is also blamed for anything bad that happens. I would not want that type of responsibility.

I don't think it is a question of being a man or a woman.\nIts the knowledge and experience in situations that would make a good president.  Personality, Charisma, Handling the Press --\nIsn't that really what a president is?  Just a figurehead?

After reading some of these answers, I think the answer is clear.  Because too many WOMEN think there should not be a woman president.\n\nHonestly, I'm shocked, I believe in equality of the sexes, that women and men can do things equally and can hold the same job or achieve the same results.  I'd vote for a woman president based on 1 thing, whether I feel she can do the job or not, not based on whether the candidate has a penis or breasts.\n\nI think this just goes to show you that people have lost the ability to think freely nowadays.  A woman president is not going to start war every month, she is not going to be any more emotional than a man when it comes down to business, and actually, women tend to be able to sell and be more diplomatic which could lend a hand to foreign relations.  The ountry is not too young for it either.  People need to see that you can either make excuses or get something done and saying things like the examples above is making excuses.  Of course it won't happen while everyone believes it won't, and of course it would happen if people could even open up to the possibility.

I'm with you---Hillary would no doubt make  a fine President. It takes a woman to do it right and I think that she would be a breath of fresh air for the whole country.

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.

If she's qualified to run the country I'll vote for her, I don;'t have a problem with a woman president or a minority president, I do however have a problem with underqualified candidates. Hillary is underqualified to be a senator, and certainly underqualified to be president, one clinton in office was enough, we don't need 2, look what 2 bush's in office has done.

If I felt she was the best qualified of the candidates then yes I would. Gender, race, or religion (even political affiliation) have nothing to do with it.

Probably not!  If a female came along that truly possessed the charisma, intelligence, political and diplomatic skills that most people look for in a candidate, she might stand a chance. But, let's face it folks, most guys will not vote for a female, and many women feel safer with a guy at the helm. If you are really honest with yourself, you would have to admit there in no good candidate on the horizon, and please, don't say Hillary.  \n\nHillary's biggest problem is the fact that she has surfaced much to early.  For her to maintain a high level of popularity for as long as she needs to, is almost impossible.  It has long been stated, that to rise too early in popularity when it comes to seeking office, is a political death knell for the average candidate.  By the time election time comes round, even the most die-hard liberal will be sick of hearing Hillary's name.\n\nIf a truly capable candidate surfaces in the meantime, I would sure like to know more about her, hell I might even vote for her.  In your dreams.
