But I do not think it is time yet for a woman to be leading the most powerful country in the world unless there is someone who is capable of the job. Sarah Palin would be a very dangerous person to have running your country. The world does not respect her at all. The day Russia has a woman President, will be the day US is led by a woman President. Women who have lead countries in the past have not done a very good job in power. |
I don't think anybody should be leading America unless they are capable of the job, male or female doesn't matter. I don't think Bush Jr was capable nor do I think Palin will be.
I really do think you need to be tough to take on a job like that. In fact, most women who rise to the top of politics are exceptionally tough - even tougher than the men. Just take a look at Thatcher and Clinton, both extremely tough women.
