Jan. 24, 2007 - my opinion in politics
I don't usually write about politics. I usually stay away from the subject unless asked. I guess I haven't studied enough to know what I'd be talking about anyway.
However, recently on CNN or some other news channel, the anchors have been asking the question, "Is our country ready for a woman president?" (speaking of H.Clinton)
Well, since they asked and it doesn't seem like I need to do a lot of study on what my feelings are on this question, I want to answer.
No, I'm not. Especially not Hilary. All I've seen from her is a power-hungry drive. It's in her eyes when she looks on with "compassion" at the poor people who surround her and champion her. She wants it so bad. I'm scared of this. Why do you think she didn't seemingly have any issues with Clinton's behavior with those "other" women? B/c it would make her look bad and hurt her chances for being the first woman president. She is so sick. She thinks it is b/c of her that Bill got the presidency. Either way--yuck, yuck.
OH, and I really hope nothing happens to Bush or Cheney (however, the cat fight that would ensue over that might be quite entertaining). I'm not embarrassed to be an American right now, for sure, even though other countries hate us, but I might just become embarrassed if that woman was in the White House and we had to say, "Madame President and First Man" Just doesn't sit right with me. Come to think of it, my waves of nausea started when she was considering a bid for the White House. I think I'm going to go be sick.
in my own opinion--no apologies if it's not yours,

I think the news should ask this question: "Is Americans ready for a feminist president?" To me, it's not a matter of being "woman", but it's everything that THAT woman stands for. I don't know who I will vote for but I know who I will NOT vote for.
