It will be a cold day in hell before this country elects a woman president.
I will be pope before this country elects a black woman president.
I'm just sayin........
I just don't agree with this thinking anymore. Look at all of the women legislators and business leaders these days. They are being elected in prime senatorial and congressional positions, and being hired at top businesses in the US. Hell, some even look like they can do the job...lol.
I think Hillary Clinton could be elected President. I think there will be others who would be up to the task, too, down the road. The barriers are being broken down every day. And I don't know too many women in this country who don't feel that a woman is not worth their vote. And there are a few women who do vote in this country.
I understand (I think) what you are suggesting. I just don't think that holds true anymore, and definitely not in the future.
