Woman will win White House bid

Monday February 04 2008

WITH all due respect to others, Hillary Clinton is not confused or upset when questioned on national and global issues. She is highly qualified and does not offer the same old speech.

The 2008 Democratic nominee must be prepared to challenge whomever the Republican nominee happens to be on issues regarding microeconomics, congressional-executive agreements, the International Monetary Fund, healthcare inequality, the collection of foreign communications, flag burning, gay marriages, social security, global warming, poverty, abortion, immigration, economic collapse, peak oil, the Federal Reserve, the Department of Defence, budgetary assessments and school prayer.

A woman will be elected president of the United States.

Women vote, die in war, go into space and direct news bureaus.

They are senators, governors and bishops.

It is because of the unrelenting struggle of women like Hillary Clinton, and the hundreds of thousands of women like her, that the current generation of women have the opportunity they do today.

In the 1960s, ads in newspapers were divided into two section -- jobs for men and jobs for women.

A generation of women put an end to that.

A woman will be president of the United States. If not Hillary Clinton, who? If not now, when?
