<p>No. I’m saying it’s not true. You say her gender is making people vote against her. I said it COULD be looked at the other way. But I believe neither is true. I think people are intelligent enough to vote for the candidate they think will do the best job and represent this country the way we want them to. </p>
<p>I agree with post 55 and it doesn’t matter to me whether she’s male, female, black, white or even muslim.</p>
<p>
Virtually the only people who refer to Hillary as “she-male” are rabid conservatives who wouldn’t consider voting for a Democrat anyway, whether male or female. In my opinon, they don’t count.</p>
<p>It is incredibly simplistic to assume that Hillary’s gender figures so largely into people’s hesitancy to vote for her, given all the myriad other reasons to seriously question her candidacy. I for one, would be much more willing to consider voting for her, had she not so much baggage to drag with her into the White House (the biggest and loudest being, her very male spouse!).</p>
<p>Of those for whom her gender factors into their decision to vote/not vote for Senator Clinton, I’ll bet there are far more who view her sex as an asset, than those who consider it a liability. There are plenty of people who LOVE the idea of a woman President after 240 years of males ones—we just wish we had another choice of females to fill the slot.:rolleyes:</p>
