I think Clinton's namebrand as well as her popularity is the only thing that will bring the possibility of a woman president this early in history. I don't see another woman, even condoleezza rice, having the possible stamina to get into the White House amongst majority of voters, but despite such an important precedent, I still think we need a leader like Obama in the White House for several reasons:

1. An African American with his mindset will help us become one as a nation and relieve the many tensions that still separate the races and creeds. His name has Muslim qualities, yet he believes as a Christian. Someone like this would be perfect to heal many of our wounds that keep us segregated.

2. His viewpoints, confidence, and way of speech is just what America needs to regain hope in itself in light of all the depressing news. We might can combine together to fix our problems much like we did during World War II.

3. His youth and radical goals are very reminiscent of Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, and John F. Kennedy, all presidents that took this country to a new level, and it is about time we had that again.
