Spinoff to Hillary's Announcement: Which Will Happen First?

In light of Hillary Clinton's announcement, who do you think our country is more likely to elect for president first: a female candidate or a minority candidate?

Do you think either will happen in our lifetime?

Re: Spinoff to Hillary's Announcement: Which Will Happen First?

Is "Middle America" more racist or sexist?

I guess that's what you're asking, right?

I think we'll see a woman first. Even if there are great minority hopefuls.

I say a minority will happen first.

In my wildest and best political fantasy, both parties put up minority females to run against each other and then all those who think neither are qualified SOLELY on the basis of gender or skin color are SOL. Chat Icon

Haha...that would be so wonderful!! One can dream...Chat Icon

ETA: Because race/gender alone isn't an "in" or "out"...I would never vote for Condoleeza Rice, for example.

Re: Spinoff to Hillary's Announcement: Which Will Happen First?

As much as I would like to see a woman in the oval office, I think that a minority will get it first.

Also, I just hope our next President is smart, qualified, compassionate and plays well with others.
