I strongly respect Hillary Clinton. I think she is a strong determined woman.
Has the nation finally grown up to accept the first black president? Barack Obama is a senator in Illinois.
They are both in position to run for the 2008 elections. What are your views on the United States first potential woman president or black president?

I think gender is a complete red herring as far as guidance in judging capability in any way.
My instinct tells me that a female in charge would take a more humanitarian approach to running the most powerful Country on Earth. However any female making the grade to the office would have to display all the ruthlessness and avarice that the system requires just to compete. No gender is not an issue.
The decline of the USA is.
I do believe a female could more effectively undo much of the damage done to the international reputation of the USA.

I've been ready! I think Hillary would win with no problems. Last i heard which was a piece back, she wouldn't run for president. Has she changed her mind? Barack Obama, has a strong backing, there is a good chance as well. It will make for a really interesting election, that is for sure!

I think they will run against each other at first. Hillary will drop out and will end up running with him for vice president.
