After seeing how Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin were treated, I don't know why any woman would ever want to run for office let alone President. There is so much sexism in both parties that it's disgusting.

I do not think that a woman president would be any different than another male presidency.

StRaItJaCkEt36

just like the black guy is no different from the white guy before. collective reasoning fails again.

lol, what? Do you ever know what you're talking about? Obama was not elected because people thought a black president woudl be better than a white one. He was a better cannidate than McCain was at the end of the day.

sure buddy, because mccain, standing on bush's shoulders is so different than obama doing so... there was no substantive difference then and there is none now.

Haha, It's funny how people can fight over people that are basically the same. Bush, Obama, Romney, McCain: what are the material differences? Just another puppet.

I'm not American nor do I think I can speak for a majority of them. I was just meaning that a president is evaluated by his policies, not his gender. So I think a woman's policies is what will make the US a happier place or not.

No. The only chance a female president would have to affect real change would be to gangbang all of congress. Then she might hold some sway.

If they are qualified and perform their presidential duties of protecting rights and liberties of citizens well, sure.

Unfortionatly the female front runners from both parties are Clinton & Palin:?

Its like deciding to pick a fair and balanced news source, but your choices are MSNBC or Fox

do you know anything about the basis of this hadith? when it was spoken? and the context of it. not to mention the problems that arise when you realize when and how the hadiths were collected? There are several instances where women were appointed or got elected to positions of power in the islamic world throughout history. ah you know what? fvck it.... i don't care.

The context doesn't make it any better, but here:

During the battle of Al-Jamal, Allah benefited me with a Word (I heard from the Prophet). When the Prophet heard the news that the people of the Persia had made the daughter of Khosrau their Queen (ruler), he said, "Never will succeed such a nation as makes a woman their ruler."

I'll give you one point, though; there were a lot of problems with the collection of ahadith. If anything, though I'm inclined to trust that a hadith from Sahih Bukhari is reliable. Also, this is only about whether women can be rulers in Islam; of course, many scholars have permitted women to be judges and so on. But given the patriarchal character of Islam, I don't think it seems unreasonable to say that Muhammad didn't want women to be rulers.

Check and mate.

Did you literally apostatize yourself from anti-Muslim sites? It talks about the situation in Persia at the time: the Sassanid dynasty were facing strife among each other, so the Sassanid king ordered to murder all the males (cry me your misogyny plox) but his son, the irony of the situation is that his son died before him not long afterwards, so they had to find a heir, and out of all the great Persian men of the time available to lead the empire, they've chosen a woman, the prophet was shocked, seeing this as an extreme indication of lack of competence, and thus, said the statement.

Not to mention this refers to non-Muslim leaders of the female gender altogether. For Islam takes measures to ensure a woman leads in dignity with a code of pride, as is the case with Aisha, which not only lead Muslims spiritually, but also participated in battles, and she was the wife of the prophet, and knew him more than all companions combined. This is not to say non-Muslims can't have female leaders with a history of success, but it definitely says that Islam doesn't do much with gambles.

BTW, what's with the check mates? I thought you liked preaching about the, in CptSparrow's word, "epistemological no absolutes gobbldyg*ock"...
