I say SURE! Why not? If the person is qualified, represents my views, and can win the election, I'd support their attempt wholeheartedly.

Australia currently has a female Prime Minister and New Zealand had two consecutive female Prime Ministers from 1997 - 2008. Ireland currently has a female President, and Germany has a female Chancellor.

They are but a few among many female current and former heads of government.

I really doubt these women are "too emotional" to run their countries.

WEMen are too emotional to run the country.........?....Firstly without women there would be no country...............sounds like men are logical and calm? READ YOUR AMERICAN HISTORY......It was a KING who pushed the Young nation to the brink And men who massacred Red coats in the middle of the night in Boston HARBOUR and other place.PI'ED OFF.....Masculine emotion may look different, I will agree, but a determined women, educated, experienced..........can not be overlooked.............emotional men drink to much , and use drug to hide and stuff.........just like us all. WHAT WAS A MOB............in the old west..........what are the chicken livered politicians of Wisconsin up to..Poor up bringing sometimes effects the way people try to deal with problems,,,or run from them........some times we are stronger,smarter richer and better because of assumed family ties..Women take on that job with a vengeance...they just want give up. After all many battles are won by people who are smart and will not give up. Don't let my wife hear you say women are weak.............she might do something so you can live more like a women

I kind of chuckle at the image of G.W. "He tried to kill my Daddy" Bush as standard bearer for male stability and resolve under fire. I also chuckle at the self-assured and definitive assessments of Obama's presidency by individuals who have not the slightest inkling of the behind the scenes of what said Presidency entails. Clinton isn't tarnished by anything Obama has done, certainly not in the way Rebublican candidates in 2008 were tarnished by the Bush years. LOL. Y'all kill me!

Is America ready for a female president? Yes, we are, but not a dumb bunny, gun-toting, moose shooting woman.

Or when women get "uppity" and think they're equal and should have equal rights????
.....Over stepping occurs but looks different at different levels of education, statis, rank, and gender .but it is not exclusive to the female. Some times it actually works and sometime not. Sometimes we applaud.

In 2016, Hillary will be 69 years old. I think it's all over for her becoming pres.
