What is your feeling on having  a woman as the next president of the USA, I think it would be great?

I would not be opposed to having a woman in office, however I would never vote for someone just because she is a woman.  I think that if she represents my interests well, then great, but if a man opposing her holds more similar views than her, he'd get my vote instead.

Hey! I vote!!\n\nYes, I would very much like to see a female president. I couldn't say who I'd put up for the job at the moment, though. I don't know many people's voting record, ect at the moment. As far as I'm concerned, as long as we get someone capable and competant in the position, I'll be happy.

I believe most people are ready for a woman in the White House.  More than that, though, we need a real leader who will bring us together.  We have a lot of issues out there right now that split us right down the middle at 50/50.  Worst of all, there is NO ONE out there, man or woman, who is really saying what is on peoples' minds.\n\nI would like to think that we could have a sensible president who would be a national and world leader, and that the sensibility would lead to less war and what not.  Problem is that there are lots of people out there (inside and outside America) who want a fight right now, and you won't get them to listen and follow any system because the system has screwed them over too many times.  This leads to an ineffective government, and infighting--which is exactly what we see in this world today.\n\nJust voting for some woman won't solve anything.  But I am certain there is a woman out there who could do the job if she wanted it.

I dont think it would really matter. In fact I think a strong assertive woman...who is still compassionate and realistic would work nicely. We dont need anyone whos a bit obsessed or overly driven about becoming the president. Just someone who feels they have something to offer. Not some agenda or thing to proove.

LOL Good catchy one! \nYes I believe it is time for a woman to be in the WHITE House.. although Hillary kind of was w/ Bill hahaha.. So..I'd vote for any woman because I know it is time in history to move forward with the times!

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.

Next election we have 2 female candidates, and I believe both are the favored candidates. \nSecondly a womans nature isn't to lead in a head position, but in a behind the scenes position. I'm not saying it's impossible, however, most wouldn't exactly shine. Third, the number of female candidates has been far to low for one to have been elected. Fourth, foreign negotiations would probably have trouble with a female leader. Many countries still have women in lesser positions and believe women aren't fit for head positions in anything. A probably distant fifth reason is that some guys wouldn't except a female president so they would lose votes there, but noone's ever gonna be excepted by everyone. Don't take this as unfair treatment, it's fairly equal, and it's also natural. Most people I know would be open minded enough to accept a woman, that was qualified, to be president.\n\nI believe that's 5 good reasons, and also I gave you some info on the fact that we might soon get a female president, so whatever sexism you were trying to 'bring to light' or w/e  you should probably drop. Sexism is similar to racism, most is fueled by the person who is 'hurt' by it, for the simple reason that they can't understand, someone's always going to find some reason not to like you, it doesn't matter what you say. If you're perfect in every other way, they'll use your race, your sex, or your ethnicity against you. Grow past it and stronger than it and you'll probably notice less of it.\n\nAnd trust me, just because we get women leaders, we would not be without war. Men are more logical than women, and women act on emotions. Emotions are feelings and feelings are temporal. If a girl's on her period and then also ends up with some problem with her kid if she's married, and then has to negotiate with Russia, I'd personally be scared. That's one of the reasons women operate better behind the scenes. But my point was, impulse and emotion cause a whole lot more fighting than logic does. Women are human just like men, and there's going to be fighting regardless.

I totally agree with you. Oprah would be a great president. She's nice to everyone and she's not biased. She's just a great woman and will show other nations that we care.

Yes i would, it's about time, we had some really smart lady in charge. \nFor one on the most advanced nations on earth, we are one of the few democracies that have never had a woman leader.\nMaybe the time has come at last.

I think eventually a woman will be become president - but it better NOT be Clinton

We already had a woman president, Hillary. lol\nMickey Mouse could win the presidency next term on the Democratic ticket after these last few years with W.\nIf a woman becomes president, what do they call her husband? The first gentleman?\nIt'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. \n\n\nThere are several women out there right now with the nads to be president. Many other nations have female heads of state so why no the U.S.? One way to look at it is being a good mother. To do this you have to be a good leader requiring strength, making tough decisions even if those you lead (your kids) hate you for a while, being flexible with what new information comes your way, and so forth. \nNot saying a president has to be a mom, just saying women have the ability and strength of character to do the job.\n\nThanks for a great question.

Nothing for or against her political views I feel that this country as much as they try to "embrace" all the women/minortiy movments are not ready to have on running the Most Powerful Country. \n\nI feel that Hilary Clinton gender will play a large role in the votes she will receive.  First there will be those women that have been waiting for this opportunity to get a woman into office and once there is one with as much power and political influences this seems like it will be the way to go.  Then there will be those that will NEVER vote for her as she is a woman and even in the 21 century there are still so many gender stereotypes that exist today and those that believe that a woman is just not capable of handling all the responsibilities that will go along with some position ( including president of the United States) \nIn my opinion I feel that a woman president would be great but I don’t feel that a candidates gender should be an important issue voting for President – the person to rule the country.  It is so frustrating seeing all the advancements that this country has accomplished yet we still haven’t had a women president??

Having attended a college made up exclusivly of women I've had an up close look at issues I really never thought to be issues.  This is almost one.  Yes, there will people who will vote for Hillary just becasue she is a woman.  Yes, there will be people who vote against her becasue she's a woman.  Other then that, I don't really think it matters what hangs between the legs of our president, if anything.  It just matters if they are the best person for the job.  But to answer the question.  I feel it might happen and soon, just not yet.  This country needs to drag itself out of the 1940's and realize that anyone can do any job as long as they are qualified.

I can't think of ONE woman qualified to hold the office of President.  Come to think of it...there aren't to many men either....\nThis race will be an interesting one!

I think the US is ready for a no bullshit president.  One like Truman or many others like him who go off the principle that they are there to make the country(our country) a better place.  Whether it's male, female, black, white, or brown my vote will go to the person who comes out and says listen I know this may not be the most popular idea but here's what I'm thinking and why it'll work.(if it makes sense)  So is the us ready for a female president?  I think the us is ready for a tough american president.  What that person has between their legs or on their chest doesn't matter.
