Seems the US has two items unaddressed. Never had a female or black President. Could she be an option to over stepping both of those barriers?

Just wanted the forums opinion...

[chemical ali]

Nothings wrong with a woman whos black as a president, shes in a top level position already. There have been other woman leaders, take Margret Thatcher.... she had a war!

Correct me if i'm wrong, but this bushes right hand woman right?

[Hostile]

Yes I would call her that. No need to overstate the obvious.

Skin colour and gender doesn't make anyone better or worse or solution to anything. If she is competent, she can be a "solution" to USA problems. Giving power to someone because of their gender and skin colour is also a kind of racism.

This is the reason why there should be a new subforum, for us to discuss these topics.

hmm, if it wasnt for the fact that she is ;

i would have liked that. but then again, the chances for the first female president being a black one aswell in USA seems to me as a very long shot to say the least.

personally i would have liked to see hillary clinton try to become president next time, but i dunno what the american people think about her. if kerry desides he would like to try to get elected again, that might become troublesome for the democrats generally...

I quite like her, I just don't want all of the pictures of our next president baring her teeth.


A good presidential portrait?


Let your eyes flock to the teeth... the teeth...

There are some damn good pictures of her in the Boston Globe bearing her teeth at the UN and practically hissing. She's a competent national security advisor and a smart woman, but tact?

disgusting IMO

problem with being the first black president is a white supremist group would take them out... it's damn near a death sentence...

in short: war of assholes... or people with lack of knowledge of genetics...

I believe that is why alot of black people steer lear of high level positions. Though I don't feel this applies as much these days as US bigots are an endangered species for the most part.

I personally don't care what color or gender they are. If someone is qualified than they are qualified. I'd even consider Hillary Clinton as she is smart and emotionally controled.

Just cause I'm republican I choose to vote any party. My choice. I just don't see many viable demcratic candidates. I'm sorta like Hybrid that I choose what I choose cause there doesn't appear to be a better choice.

I think a John McCain/Leiberman ticket is my dream team come true. I don't even care which order they appear in. They are both VERY moderate and sensible. This appeals to me.

That's a laugh. Actually most of the bigots are European. You have no idea how many people have come on my clan's server saying what we consider in America to be racial slurs as their every day language!

[duke_Qa]

yeah hehe, i can vouch for that, quite a few over here that are rascists, usually the older people who haven't quite integrated into their minds that there are people from other countries who lives in theirs(they didnt start to come here in force before the 70s).

still, its mostly social rascism in conversations. i see very little of anything else. rule of thumb is the higher the education, the lesser the rascism. if you believe in such a thing, you usually have brought nothing but extra cost to the society anyway, and are most likely not looked upon as a "serious" person.

i should have dvelved a bit deeper into the topic, but i don't have time for it so i hope you get my point...

yeah, it's quite unfortunate...

agreed... I honestly don't get people who vote just because their democrat or republican...

you haven't been to the south... hell, I live in cali, and we got neo-nazi's, anti-semites, and kkk wanabes... in fact some lil punks tried to jump me and my friend not so long ago becuase my friend is black... fortunately niether of them had a weapon, and we dropped them both...

There's a reason why I'm an advocate of less strict gun laws for regular civilians.

[chemical ali]

[MSpencer]

Not you.

still don't get what good the gun laws do when 90% of the guns used to attack people are obtained illegally

Not you.
