People need to stop seeing it as "people, including women, did not want to see a woman president" and accept the fact that "people, including women, did not want to see Hillary Clinton as president".  

Exactly! I'm extremely excited for Nikki Haley to run for President, but that's because she has similar values and political thoughts to me. I legit think she is the most qualified to be President for the next Republican. She was a hawk at the UN. Sarah Palin though? No way. She is not qualified.

The idea that people vote for people just because of their gender or race is incomprehensible to me. Vote for who would get the job done the best you'd want it to be done. I knew a conservative girl in high school who wanted Hillary to win the nomination and election in 2008 just because she's a woman. Why? She's gonna do a whole bunch of stuff you don't agree with, why vote for her?

I also knew a girl back than who wanted McCain to lose to Obama simply because he was older. That similarly makes no sense, unless you think he doesn't have the mental capacity to run a country anymore (that wasn't her argument).

As I said clearly in my post I don't think people should vote based on their demographic. I'm well aware that a large amount of people greatly dislike Hillary Clinton. That is the reason why Trump is president. Thanks to non-white women, Hillary Clinton did win the women vote overall. Let's not forget she won the popular vote by around 3 million as well.

Nikki Haley is a horrible politician and a hypocrite. She was an embarrassment at the UN. I hope her political comeback fails. She was nothing but a Trump lackey who betrayed all of her principles. If Trump-style republicanism fails this election you will see so many of his stooges run away from him. I hope Haley, Pompeo, Cruz, and Pence all suffer for their spinelessness.
