Madam President?

the gender of the president is not an issue with me. the issue for me is the priorities/policies/leadership qualities s/he will bring to the job.

I agree why not. Just like you said she can't do any worse than George Bush. I don't think anyone can. I feel that it is time for a change and that if she does become our first female president and does a good job than I don't think it will be as hard for a woman or an African-American to become president. I feel that either one is fine by me as long as they are doing their job.
