Thanks David,
I have no problem with the geographic point, but If our best choice is a
woman then what is the problem? To me, the one of whom we have the
greatest confidence is who will serve our joint interests best. I look
to the minds and hearts of those I support. There are still bigots in
the world and surely that will continue to need addressing. Though
often hidden from view. If the females of the world are to be our
leaders because they have the right stuff, we are better for that. Are
men afraid of loosing their machismo?
Sorry for the rant, but I see this gender thing as demeaning to those
who have worked to get to the position which they have rightfully earned.
Respectfully,
Lou
