Are We Going to Be the Last Western Country to Elect a Woman President?

“It does seem to me that it was easier to elect a black man, in a sense, than to elect any woman,” Reid stated. “So what are we talking about? Are we going to be the last Western country on Earth … What are we talking about, ten years, 20 years? When is this country going to be ready?”

This is rhetoric that we've been hearing for some time, and I have to tell you... I find it disturbing. 

The office of president - really, any political post in any country - is not just for making history. Our president is the leader of the free world. What we should be judging our choices for this position on are their character and ability to do the job. That far out ways the "firsts" the left is wanting to push into the office. 

Is having a female president a good idea? Yes! I'd love to see a female president. But I'm not going to throw my own principals or my country under the bus to get it. Hillary was not a good choice. I don't care how in love some on the left were with her. The woman has been getting groomed for the office her entire life, and she was willing to do literally anything to get the position. And when she lost, she blamed everything and everyone but herself. This is a woman who obstructed justice, destroyed evidence, outright lied to cover her own butt, and destroyed the lives of people who got in her way. 

When the right female comes along, I'd be willing to cast my vote, and I don't doubt many others would follow suit. I'm not a straight line voter, so party doesn't play a huge roll for me. I don't vote for a lot of democrats, but it isn't unheard of for me to do it. I look for the best choice.

And at the end of the day... if you are looking for true equality, the fact that she lost is proof it is there. She didn't get the vote of people based completely on her being a woman and people wanting to make history. People looked at her and said, "Nah." That is equality. If Hillary had even a shred of humanity and could have at least pretended with some conviction to be a decent person, she might have taken the electoral votes. But Hillary doesn't elicit confidence and comfort. She's a creepy woman. Period. 

Give us a woman to vote for. Give us a woman who isn't an extremist that has been groomed her entire life for one roll. Give us a woman with character and morals. A woman is actually strong, not just says she is. Someone we can look to as being a decent representative of our gender and most importantly our country. And we'll vote for her.

But so far, you haven't shown me anything. Your female picks for 2020 aren't looking good, either.
