A Woman For President

Why hasn't the United States had a woman president?
(or a Black or minority for that reason either)

We are stuck with Bush till 2008, so we might as well start looking in the near future...

I think both Hillary Clinton and Condolleza Rice both could have what it takes.

I believe Hillary is smart, tough, and has the American People's better interest at heart.

Condoolleza Rice, although under Republican influence displays a lot of Integrity and dedication.

Is this scenario possible?
Does a woman have what it takes?

I could see myself supporting a Clinton campaign.
Or a Green Party campaign if they get someone better than Nader.
Remember ol' Ross?

Bipartisanly yours,

Why not a hermaphrodite, or a transgender? (whatever the hell that is)

Some fear that a Woman isn't tough enough to lead the military. or

Margaret Thatcher was tough.

"oh this Iraq thing is just too much already! Oh what am I gonna do about this economy!? Oh there's just so much going on I can't keep up with it! I need to get my nails done today! And I think I'll buy a new hat too! Oh why can't people just be more nice!? Those oil companies are like, such meanies! Ohhh ... I just ... hey! Does my mascara look OK? Does my dress fit? Are people looking at me? Does he want me? ..."

I know that's what Dubya said about Iraq, so what's your point? That we shouldn't let men run the country? Thought so.

1) how much worse can it get ?.
If we continue to do what we keep doing, are we ever going to get better results?

Presentation is important.
Is my tie crooked? Do I look macho enough? What color tie should I wear?
Wheres my make-up artist?>>I go on in 10 minutes
Should I grow a beard? >> that would make me look like Grant.

Everyone at that level is groomed and manicured.
I think a Woman is capable of focusing more on the issues.

The People of New York thought Hillary could focus more on their problems than her appearance.
Who doesn't think about their appearance? In any high level position?

Symptoms include, depression, fatigue, irritability, loss of sex drive and even hot flashes but the real trouble, experts say, is the drop in testosterone and rise in estradiol the "female" hormone that men make too. About 80% of men will experience symptoms of IMS.
There were two age groups where it’s most common and are most likely to have extreme forms of IMS: young men between 15 and 28 years old and those in midlife between 40 and 55 years old.

BTW, I would vote for Buffy without question.
