The 2008 election marks a milestone in history - minorities are running for presidency. There's the woman - Hillary Clinton, and the African-American - Barack Obama. We have never had a woman or a minority in office. Is America ready for it? Or should things stay the way they have been? Some argue that if a woman is president, then other countries - specifically those that look down on women - will lose respect for America. Others argue that it's about time for some major changes; we need reform!

The question is also, are the minorities ready to be President? Neither Obama or Hilary have what it takes in my opinion. All they have going for them is hype. When people say "I can't wait for Obama/Clinton to run," I ask them why they think so. Most people just say healthcare for Hilary, and for Obama, people usually shrug their shoulders and say something along the lines of everybody likes him and he's popular.

Neither Obama or Hilary have what it takes in my opinion. if they were not ready then they will not run it was bush who wasn't ready and look wheres that lead us... he had no plans and lead this country to war... he was a waste of 8 years... Hilary knows what she wants and knows what to expects for she was at her husband's side when he ran and while he was in office, i'm pretty sure she knows how to do what she plans to do and waiting as long as she did as for obama i'm not sure... and he isn't doing as thought as he whould... but as i said if clinton and Obama wasn't ready they will not run... plus its about time a women and a african amercian ran for president... its kinda of a win win on who ever wins... although more pressure will be on the winner with a war on and them being the first ___ but i have faith... and hopefully they will not let us down like bush has... |
