As far as Hilary - if she is nominated by the democrats, they will be
handed
another loss.

I'm not so sure about that. It's fine points that detract from most
candidates. If she learns to shut her friggin' mouth about certain hot
button issues, like gun control, she might actually have a chance.



I firmly believe the US is not ready for a woman or black president. All
peoples prejudices will come bubbling up and either would lose.

I agree. I've even seen polls which indicate that women believe we're not
ready for a woman president. I'd like to know more about the thinking behind
that. I wonder if the results of such a poll are affected by the mere
presence of someone like Hillary. In other words, people ponder the
question, and the most prominent example is someone they're not fond of.
Whatever. I'd like to see a a half million women polled on who they think
*would* be a good candidate, with perhaps 20 choices listed. I'd vote for
Carly what's-her-name, who used to run Hewlett Packard. Hillary, maybe, if
she'd learn to shut her trap on issues that nobody has been able to clear up
for almost 100 years, like gun control. Even Bush, moron that he is, knows
enough to leave that one alone and let the courts figure out what the
founders meant in the 2nd amendment.


I mean look
at the last election, it was well known that Bush was liar and
incompetent,
he had lost more jobs during his first term in office than any other
president, he had the largest deficit in history and he had more votes
AGAINST him than any other president in history. But the brain-washed
holier-than-thou crowd turned out even more people!
IMO Hillary would get CREAMED!

Intellectual laziness, in my opinion. Subtract the truly stupid from the
voting population, and what's left couldn't possibly believe Bush was a good
candidate. People believe that there are so many levels of government, and
checks & balances, that no single person could really affect things in an
adverse way. Unfortunately, the mere presence of the clown has an effect.
