Female President?

---

**we may have a female figurehead in the queen, but she doesn't do much! the people that make the decisions are mostly men in parliament.
As for our female prime minister, maggie thatcher, i hope if you get a female president she doesn't fuck up your country like maggie did to ours. **

yeah i agree, tho saying that, she was the first woman in that kinda position over here, and now people are scared of a woman being in charge

for all her short commings, admittedly Britton was languashing under a stagnant labour government for too long. It got to the point that you couldn't take a dump without a vote and a shop-steward present.

I kind of agree with you. i think if Hillary decides to run for office, I think she'll win hands down. I know I'd vote for her!

Mainly because Bill will be back...We kind of did have a black president.

Condi Rice has been asked repeatedly if she would seek the Rep nomiation. She claims no interest.Rice vs Clinton. Good god, that would be the pollitical circus of the century. Can you imagine the "good 'ol boys" trying to decide between a black woman and a liberal woman!AWSOME!!

I'd be shocked if you did vote for Rice, especially if it was just because she's black.hehehehe you said "get into her" hehehe

Politics aside, I don't think she'd be a good candidate. She comes across as a poorly-informed academic. Obviously you can get elected even if you seem poorly-informed, but in the U.S., an academic doesn't have a prayer. At least not since the days of Woodrow Wilson, back when the ladies got the vote.

as if we are all that gullible and stupid just to vote for someone b/c of their race. I thought that was hallmark of the republican party.

As Ineligible said, the last two Irish presidents were women, and there was once a female Pope! They only found out she was a she when she got herself pregnant.

the pope got herself pregnant?
Oh you catholics and your miracles!

There have been a couple of women Free Masons under certain circumstances

It won't and can't happen. How would a female deal with a world crisis? She would be afraid to use force and would probably start crying when the media criticized her, feminists would love it but the presidency is a man's job. Black, hispanic, Jews, etc, they could all make great presidents, as long as they were men.

You're talking about the Pope John/Joan thing that took place in like 800 A.D., there's really no factual basis of that.

This from the boy that still lives at home with his mommy.

umm sexist much?? If you wanna go with this sexist stuff... women are known to be more level headed than men. Women have better reasoning skills.. women have better self control.. Women are usually better public speakers.. women usually have more charisma. Do I need to continue?I dunno all those qualities are something I look for in a president.With your view of women, I think you and Unforghetto would get along just fine.

A Straight Dope Classic from Cecil's storehouse of human knowledge: Was there once a female pope?In reply to:A lot of the rumors about the "bad popes" are true, but let's not get ridiculous. The female pope story is generally regarded as a fabrication._________________________________________________________________________________> It won't and can't happen. How would a female deal with a world crisis?I have to give you your due. You bait, and people still bite. You're a masterful baiter and manipulator with no sense of shame. I suggest a career in politics when you finish college.

Well, Anyones better then Bush. Even hillaryBut i Dont think a female who is qualified to do a good job has come for the spot yet. I dont even know if im going to vote in 2008 cause im so dissapointed with the cadidates. and again, anyone is better then Bush.

No actually I rent a house down the street from my campus douche. And sorry I'm not a feminist, I just know reality. A woman could not succeed in the presidency, they're too sensitive. How would a woman have dealt with the Cuban Missile Crisis? What would a woman do after Pearl Harbor? Maybe as a governor, senator, or congressman, but not as president.

hehehehe, he's a master baiter! lolrotfllmaocia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Oh, and should I be surprised that you are not only a fellow Hofstadter fan but also an Addams follower? If you were better lookng, we'd practically be twins

It has nothing to do with my view of women, I just don't think a woman could effectivly handle this nation. Especially with all the muslim countries who currently hate us, it would give them more of an incentive to attack with a woman in charge, first off they would be pissed to see a female in power, second they'd see it as a sign of weakness based on their beliefs.
