Poll: Clinton’s gender is her top 2016 selling point
The Daily Caller ^ | 21 Mar 2014 | Caroline May

If Hillary Clinton runs for president in 2016 her top selling point will be — not her experience, not her competency, or intelligence — the fact that if she would be the first U.S. president with ovaries.

A new Gallup poll released Friday found that when asked what the best or most positive thing about a Hillary Clinton presidency would be, 18 percent cited the fact that she would be the first woman president. The second most popular answer, at nine percent, was her experience, specifically her foreign policy experience.

Other positives, that netted at least five percent of respondents, were that she would be the best choice, that she would be a change from the Bush and Obama administrations and that she would stick to a Democratic agenda.

A little less than half of respondents either had no opinion (22 percent) and answered “nothing” (27 percent).

“Clearly Clinton’s ‘unique selling proposition’ is that she would be the first woman president,” Gallup’s Frank Newport writes. “Nearly one in five Americans mention this historic possibility as a positive, including 22% of women, 27% of 18- to 29-year-olds, and 30% of Democrats.”

Just four percent of Americans said the most negative aspect of a Clinton presidency would be the fact that she is a woman, and one percent said that the country is not ready for a woman president.

When broken down by party, Democrats who had a negative view of a Hillary Clinton presidency were most likely to say they “don’t want a female president.” Six percent of Democrats gave that response. Most Republicans said the most negative aspect would be a “continuation of this path.”

You can only be “Black” or “Female” if you’re liberal.

The media will repeat “first woman president” millions of times and the a$$holes will march in lockstep to the polls.

On the sole issue of “gender”, Sarah has far more feminine gender than Hillary, so Sarah should be the Republican candidate.

On issues of wisdom, character, morality, executive experience, business experience, etc. Hillary lags even further behind Sarah Palin.

You'd need the Jaws of Life to find out.

Then you'd have to decontaminate, melt down and bury the Jaws.

She still stands by that smarmy man, Bill Clinton.

I'm waiting for Bill to drop dead so she can play the grieving widow.

What else would anyone expect when we twice elected an incompetent America-hating boob whose only seemingly salient point for this dumbass electorate is that he is black [half, anyway]?

Her ovaries don’t count. Only left-leaning ovaries need apply.
