Those simple-minded gherkins would make Pee Wee Herman look like Winston Churchill in terms of leadership ability and intelligence.
Democrats certainly didn't vote for THEM.

Given that the two women named above were both revered by REPUBLICANS - I would agree with this statement.

"I also would vote for Michele Bachman, Sarah Palin, Ben Carson or Herman Cain as they are extremely qualified people with brilliance and unquestioned intelligence."


Your list provided clearly shows your lack of understanding Sarah Palin is far from brilliant and her intelligence can certainly be questioned. Ben Carson is certainly a brillant man but his experience in government is zero. He would be the very first person I would call if I needed life saving surgery. He would be near the bottom of the list if I needed a governor. It takes a certain type of person to be a truly successful. Some of those qualities are not what I would call admirable but they are what they are.

Do Democrats tend to elect people to leadership positions just because they are not white males?


Nah, but many find silly questions amusing.

Are you asking Republican s or democrats? I’m a democrat who is also a white man so, no, I would not vote against someone like myself. That said, race, gender, sexual orientation would not influence whom I vote for either.

So she wouldn't mind degrading her state to third world status by flooding it with illegals and refugees?

If that was true, then they would not have any white male representatives, but since that is not the case, your argument cannot be true.

Did Dems vote for them because is gender or race?

No, they did not, so the argument is defeated again.

No, but they would vote for someone if they were related to a Kennedy or a Clinton

So some people would favor only white males in leadership positions? News flash—There are qualified and experienced people who are not also white males. These people tend to have greater opportunity for advancement in the Democratic Party. In the GOP the opportunity is more like a minstrel show performance — more of a novelty.
