And, by the way, I'm not female!
Step aside? How about the parties back an electable female? You know one with some integrity, good character and a strong moral compass. I would vote for a female in a New York minute over a male if she was worthy of the vote.

Hillary Clinton was far from worthy. Blame the democrats for backing a lame horse.

back on topic.

Biden or Sanders? Yeah thats a bit like the last election. Prostate cancer or testicular cancer. Not much of a choice.

Biden is like that shirt that's been hanging in the closet forever that your ex gave you. You never wear it because you didn't like it then and you dont like it now.

Sanders? He's far too socialist and if he did win would face what Trump faces now. Complete resistance from both parties.

We need a president that both sides respect enough to work with.

I've heard it too often as to why we haven't elected a female President: no qualified candidates!

But I won't hold my breath for a female POTUS.
I have no problem voting for a female President. Like any candidate I expect them to be republican conservative and Christian. She would obviously need to be qualified for the job. The only serious female candidate in our history was a leftist. Unacceptable.....this country does not need that.

Condoleza Rice, Michelle Bachman, Sara Palin???? Would you have been good with these women in the POTUS role?? I bet not. I however would be just fine with it.

I'm not sure how you think you know which candidate (s) I'd be good with. Just as I wouldn't vote for a woman simply because she's a woman, I wouldn't vote for a Democrat just because she's a Democrat. And I wouldn't automatically disqualify a Republican simply because she's a Republican. I'm no ideologue.

Condoleeza Rice? Intelligent, competent woman (Nikki Haley is, as well). Michelle Bachman? No. And Sarah Palin? LOL. Gimme a break.

I wish everyone's thought process worked like yours and they voted with their head rather than with their herd or whatever ...

I’ve yet to hear anything on foreign policy or trade from any of the 2020 hopefuls. So far it’s all about giving away free stuff, taxing the crap out of the rich, open borders, abortion, getting rid of planes, trains, automobiles and cows, climate change, Russia and hate Trump.
I seriously doubt any of them have the balls to stand up against to leaders like Putin and Kim. Instead of sanctions.. they’ll offer them freebies if they play nice.

Trump won (and might win again) because people hate politicians

The quicker liberals understand this, the better.
