That's not a good enough reason to vote for her. I think a female President would be great, but one who doesn't have an awful reputation, who is trustworthy and honest and not riddled with scandal.

You mean like Trump who lies constantly? Cheats on his wives? Hasn't paid taxes in decades and likely never will? Is being sued by two states due to Trump University (starting next month). Who used his foundation as a political slush fund? Who contributed to Pam Bondi and magically the Florida lawsuit ended? Who has thousands of lawsuits to avoid paying contractors and often puts them out of business? That Donald Trump?

Keep waiting for that perfect female candidate, and it you're lucky, your great great great grandchildren might see a female president someday.

By then, they'll have successfully done away with "male" and "female". Seems that is their goal.

You have not done a single thing. If you had actually accomplished anything, you would have elected a female president by now. You can't even get a woman elected as vice president. Let's not pretend that women have come very far in 227 years when it hasn't been 50 years since women could even apply for a credit card.

And you honestly believe this to be the craziest reason for someone to vote for a person? I bet in the long list of reasons, this definitely leans to normal.

A vagina doesn't make one a "perfect candidate" just like a penis doesn't make one a perfect candidate. It is a very antiquated view. It was a hard fight for some of us to prove that sex organs are NOT a valid reason to judge a person's qualifications.

Apparently a penis does make a perfect candidate since every president for the last 227 years has had one. Funny how there are more women than men in this country and yet the women are still seeking the approval of the men that they don't care that they are not represented in the White House and never have been. Ladies, run along now and do your knitting.

And how many Trump supporters are voting for him just because he has a penis? To be specific, a WHITE penis. I'd venture to guess that compromises the vast majority of his base.

Absolutely. We have a poster here on CD that regularly refers to President Obama as the NIC instead of CIC.
