    Really? What happened at the turn in centuries that makes you and Mr. Obama, think basic human nature has or should have changed. Do you realize one major problem, probably because of this attitude, has a 700 year history and basically never changed. Yes, Islamic Terrorism.

    No doubt a woman will someday become the President, maybe a Black or Hispanic Woman, but lets hope she is qualified and at least has some leadership experience, not some desire to change things, to her liking.

    Probably , with all the sexism a white male will be elected,, but lets hope he is qualified and at least has some leadership experience, not some desire to change things, to his liking.

    Yup, :) NO one should run for office because they want to change things to their liking...everyone should run to keep the status quo whether they like it or not....:roll::roflol:

    Obama, gallantly ran on "HOPE AND CHANGE" and most would agree, it was to his vision. If we as a Country are to return to some form of "Constitutional Republic", it will come from change, even if it's simply a return to what worked. There are a couple Black guy's I'd support, Allen West for instance, but after Obama, Black's would call him an turncoat and White's will be reluctant of another Black so soon...

    Male or female is 100% irrelevant. I don't care about the appearance of our leader. I care about their resume. So far, we have two rich, lying, elitist 1%ers with offshore bank accounts that want to be President (Hildawg and Jeb). They have NO history to suggest they should even remotely be considered. Hildawg's failed Sec. of State is just hilarious....I mean, really guys? Her first job in the real world, she was FIRED from the Watergate investigation for LYING! Lol, and some people want this person to lead the free world. Jeb...well, Jeb is just.... no. No Jeb.

    Gender or race, I'll take anyone, I don't care, gay or straight. I care about their resume and that's final.

    And that's equally stupid. As I've said, countering a stupid vote by another stupid vote only makes there be even more stupid votes. Less stupid, more smart. I mean, voting for president is a bit too important for that, don't you think?

    agreed, sadly though I do not see it happening by the majority in our lifetimes

    indeed. Don't underestimate the stupidity of humans. It's safer to overestimate actually.

    I have a plan in mind that could make Canada's Green Party Leader Ms. Elizabeth May significantly more powerful than our Prime Minister!

    It is the least that I can do considering how badly I behaved back in 2008?!

    Ignorance shown in my 2008 campaign, my apology to Ms. Elizabeth May!

    It was extremely rude of me to shout this at Ms. May as if she was unaware of this aspect of the whole formula!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Being " the first " carries a symbolic meaning, it means that from that time on there can be such presidents. Obama is the first black president and he is an important symbol of equality in a nation long runned by white people only...

    Obama is half-black and half-white! That he's seen as black only shows how many people still believe in the one drop rule! It's bloody ridiculous.

    And so what if it carries symbolic meaning? There are hundreds of traits that could be the "first". Are we supposed to vote for a homosexual just to show that we are not homophobic? Vote for a black to show we are not racist? Vote for a woman to show we're not misogynists? To vote for a transexual to show we're not transphobic? Atheists for secularism? Hispanics for anti-racism? it could go on and on... when are we going to vote for the one whose actually the most qualified to run the bloody country?! Let get one thing very clear here: Voting for people based because of their sexuality or race or sex IS RETARDED. It is equally retarded to do so because you're a racist or because you're an anti-racist. You do not "negate" the retarded vote of a racist by making a retarded anti-racist vote yourself. The net result is TWO retarded votes. We need less retard votes, and more serious votes. I mean seriously, you're voting for the guy who's going to run the country! Don't you realise that's some pretty (*)(*)(*)(*)ing serious (*)(*)(*)(*)? Anyone who takes that seriously is not going to vote retardedly.
