I'd say just about anyone/anything other than old balding white guys...DanTien said:I'm ready for a change - although I dislike Barbara Boxer and not a fan of Hillary...there has to be something better than what we've been having lately with the guys.
Well, yeah...maybe she would be different if she didn't have to answer to da man...Sheryl said:I used to think I would vote for any woman, just to see a woman finally get to the highest office in the land.... but after seeing Condi in action I'm not so sure.
You mean someone like, oh, I dunno... Condoleeza Rice?AltaRed said:I think it would be an opportune time to make a dramatic shift in US foreign policy and a woman would be in the best position to make it happen and minimize the fallout. After all, the excuse can be that she could be the exact opposite of Bush: articulate, inclusive and a financial whiz.

I wonder if the Secretary of State has any influence on foreign policy.
Nah, it'd never work.

Ed_The_Gypsy said:I have a preference for a former active-duty soldier (not a chocolate soldier as we have now), preferably one who has had his ass shot off or has been a prisoner of war. Such men think a little harder about how our military is to be used.
lazygood4nothinbum said:i don't like the word troops. i think "they" started using this word when they changed the word bomb to ordnance.
to me, troops speaks more of some disposable, anonymous group, rather than to real individuals who matter. i don't think it says as much when we think troops died, as it does when we think a soldier was shot, a 21-year-old kid died, a whole group of kids in their 20s had their legs blown off. i think that speaks volumes more than saying some troops were injured or killed.
it used to be we dropped bombs on soldiers. now it's not even war.
Laurence said:But yes, I'm at the point I will vote for whoever is furthest from the usual. Old White Man Senator/Govenor would be the usual, so I'm thinking good looking black woman business mogul.
I think you folks have missed the point.
Women do run the country.
And I have my wife's permission to say that.
