Why is it so difficult for the left to face the reality that there are inherent differences between men and women? Could there be a successful woman president? Of course. Margret Thatcher proves that it is possible. But clamoring for a woman president just because we haven't yet had one sounds a lot like some sort of weird affirmative action to me. Stong female leaders are like white baseketball players.

"Wilson said she would like to see the United States develop a quota system similar to the one in South Africa, in which 30 percent of parliament seats must go to women. Even the new governments in Iraq and Afghanistan have quotas that put a higher ratio of women in government than currently serve in the United States, Wilson said."

A quota for elected officials, doesn't seem very democratic to me

Indeed. That's why I think the "Condi v Hillary" showdown that so many stump for is a dumb idea. Perhaps we'll see a day when the most qualified candidate is a woman - but when that's the case it's usually because the men have become bums. No, when a woman is elected president of the United States it will be a sign of God's judgment in my view.
