Ok people why is it that we have to catorgize people? Why do they have to put up a race infront of it or gender? Why do they have to include Female, black, or latino next to the person. For example the presidential race. I am getting sick and tired of it. Are we ready for a female president or a black president. We should really care about their credentials and how they are and what they stand for instead of their race or gender! Why cant we be more focus on their political career instead of their skin color or their gender parts. I dont know about other countries but it seems in the states, they just dont call each other Americans, they have to add their skin color to the equation. Does french, italians and other countries do that also??

I don't know if other countries do this but it has been that way in this country for way to long. Will Hillary make a good president? Danm right she would and you are right that is the only thing we should be thinking about. Will Obama make a good president, why the heck not!! they are both smart, hard working, and two people that i would love to see run this country. I would vote for either one. not because i am a black woman, but becuase they are going to do a much better job then Bush! color and gender she not be a issue, but it is always going to be.... such a shame

I agree with you 100% as long as i could remember its always been that way and i don't think it should either.. Becuase in my opinion people show be look on upon as people not gender, or race.. But by epierence or the kind of person they are or what they believe in.. Especially if they are running for an office or trying for a job.. People are people no matter what.. We all bleed the same.. no matter what.. they shouldn't have to make it a point to metion the race or gender all the time.. That shouldn't matter

thanx for your comment. Yeah it seem this upcoming election is bout gender parts and skin color. It should be about thier stances on certain things, their credentials, and what they did while in office not what the outer part of the person is. It a shame.
