I been hearing that many older women who support Hillary say she should remain in the race even if she clearly lost the nomination. Because she the last chance for a woman president in their lifetimes!
Am a white man and Catholics but you will not hear me say we have to have another Catholics before I die alright am 30 so I can afford to take the long run and beside I really don't care about religion! It a lousy argument to vote for somebody. And a lots of peoples deserve their first. How about the first Jew? Do they deserve one before or after the first Latino and while we are at it how about the first Native American to get that job. God knows it a minority that got screwed with and if their is one minority that is really deserve some real political representation that the Native Americans. You see how this can get out of hands you don't give away the Presidency has an affirmative action vote it has to be the right man, woman, Jew, Latino or Native American! Not in any of order by the way.
When any of these first happen and I believe it will in my lifetime It would be an historic moment and we would enjoy it but you don't end over the Presidency because of racial, gender or religion. Unless you been voting for the white men preferably protestant for the last two hundreds years because he is a white male well look where it got us... The last one did not do too well and am generous it time to break that wall once and for all but only because the best candidate happen to be black had Edwards been the best the streak would have been preserved but that not the case and by far and if Hillary had won it she would make history but that not happening because she like Edwards and McCain is not the right person for the job. She proved it by some of her comment and the way she conducted her campaign.
Obama is not in this race because he is black or because he want to be the first he is in it because he feel it his duty to help put the country back on track. Now you need to have one hell of a big ego to think you can do this. But we are talking about Presidential candidates you could say it come with the job and the best are those who don't let their ego get in the way of the job. When Obama break that wall we would see a lots of peoples demanding their share of political representation they did not have right now. Is that a bad thing? I believe it long overdue. Their can be only one first that does not means he would not be followed by many!
