Which will come first: a woman president or a black president?
 

Seriously, do you think the U.S. will see a woman as president or a black man as president first? (Or a black woman?)

Personally I think we'll see a woman president first (Hillary).

I bet will all be long dead before we see a woman or a black president :2 cents:

Well hmmmm... Why just black or a woman? What about other ethnicities, spanish decent for example?

Yeah you're right; I should have said "minority" president. But either way, you get the picture.

I wish Powell had the balls to run for office... C. Powell and Mccain would be a great ticket.

I dont mind having a women as president just not hilary, b boxer or feinstein they are just bitches.

I think we have had "minority" presidents for some time. I sure in the hell am not a rich white guy.

A Colin Powell could be elected before a Hillary Clinton.:2 cents:

a woman or a hispanic...this country is too prejudiced against blacks to elect a black president in the forseeable future...

according to the 2003 census:

% of the population that is female = 50.9%
% of the population that is black = 12.3%

probably the best general answer, without specifically taking into account any particular nominated individuals.

Powell as president? He might be able to get elected but he hasnt done shit under Bush, and he has travelled and met less foreign leaders than anyone in his job during the last 30 years.

I really doubt that (see CamChicks post).

We already had one

Powell is the man! Especially when he's performing YMCA with Quentin Tarantino and his band.

I think we will see a black president first personally. There have been african americans who have been highly decorated in the millitary, when have you heard of a woman war hero? Not very often. I think that most people would feel safer with a man in office because of a wartime situation. :2 cents:

Probablly I mean we haven't seen any sign till alan keys or hillary:2 cents:

Interesting q -- I think we'll have a black man as president before we ever see a woman in the oval office. Either way women and minorities will have more of a chance running on the republican ticket though. Colin could have won.

I agree. Seems kind of crazy though, if you think about it.

I'm sure there are plenty of surveys/polls out there that have gone over this question. :2 cents:

I think we will have a black women president/ That will piss off a ton of people, both racists and sexists

I nominate

Mrs Clinton will be first:thumbsup

A non-religious half mexican half black transvestite.

Campaign slogans??? :winkwink:

read your history books . . . . black man . . . although he will probably be assassinated within weeks

Ahh, good point.

I think a black woman will be president first.

ok lets expand this, which one first.
1. black
2. female
3. hispanic
4. atheist
5. jewish
6. asian
7. american indian (assuming any are left)
8. someone under 40

a tranny maybe...

Yeah I think women are edging blacks at this point.. either way, I think it will be a while. :2 cents:

Heehee. I was gonna follow my woman president question with this.

I think the only one that would have a chance in our country's current environment would be Collin Powell. Jessie Jackson would not get past the GOB network and Al Sharpton although he has come forward millions of miles will still be seen as the clown knocked 5 feet on his ass on the Morton Downy Jr. show.:glugglug

Colin Powell vs. Hillary Clinton would definitely be one hell of a matchup. :thumbsup

I believe we've already had several of those, but you have to fake faith to get elected in this country.

I think Colin didn't want to run for president because he was afraid of being assasinated. I truly think that there would be an assasination attempt to the first black president. I am not saying that because i want to be ignorant but if you really think about it, the chances are very high. :2 cents:






-Greg

Not if he has a latino VP.

I would have supported Powell in the past but he has been such a mindless automaton under the Bush administration. He should have resigned in protest over Bush's insistance that we go to war in Iraq. Since he didn't, he has shown that he is in fact a non-leader and spineless follower. I know several other people who feel this way also.


The more prominent bet is on Hillary who is being groomed to run either in 4 years or 8 years, depending on if Kerry wins or not. I don't know that she can win but I'm sure she'll have a good chance...I mean who are the Reps gonna put forth? Dick Cheney?

BTW everybody ...get that jackass outta office before we all see our livelyhoods demolished. http://www.bushorbush.com

Woman probably

Black man then a woman.

JMO, but if Bush picks a women VP to replace our 'dead functioning' VP then it might be a women.



:)

Yes you are right. If Bush does pick a woman VP to replace our current VP, then it might be a woman!!! :1orglaugh

But seriously, which woman would Bush even consider for the job? That just seems ludacris.
