I'm still deciding how I feel about her. I have to admit, I have trouble respecting a woman that would stay in a relationship with a man like Bill Clinton (thoughts on whether or not he was a good president aside) just because I can't imagine allowing myself to be disrespected like that. I also kind of hate the idea that the first woman president would be a former first lady, who is not entirely there on her own merit. These things wouldn't stop me from voting for Hilary, but I do think about them.SLynnRohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15016804259405363833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128356272633778761.post-21669408616069614262008-01-10T01:30:00.000-06:002008-01-10T01:30:00.000-06:00I wouldn't vote for a woman for President just bec...I wouldn't vote for a woman for President just because she's a woman, for the same reasons I wouldn't vote for a man just because he's a man. Their view on issues, their carriage and demeanor, and their ability to lead are what I look for. Should Clinton be President because she's a woman? No. Should Obama be President because he's African American? No. <BR/><BR/>I also find it very interesting that people call her Hilary, and every other candidate by their last name. Huckabee, Obama, Edwards, et all. (I'm not targeting you, specifically. I mean the media, mainly) Should her being a woman enable people to treat her differently? That bothers me some.Denorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00192830024562634469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128356272633778761.post-6242500118263724312008-01-09T14:26:00.000-06:002008-01-09T14:26:00.000-06:00No. You should vote for someone whose stand on iss...No. You should vote for someone whose stand on issues most closely matches your own. Someone you think will do a good job, will leave the place better than they found it and will pave the way for our children to leave in less fear than we now live in.<BR/><BR/>With that said, I do like Hillary (and loved Gore) and I think regardless if she wins or not, it's an exciting time in our history and if you don't vote for her (and make an informed decision to vote for someone you find better suited) than you can still appreciate that this is a huge election, and it's exciting that our country realizes something new and never been done before is at least one option.She Likes Purplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10444772652348088595noreply@blogger.com
