Hillary or Obama in 2008 and I think it is stupid to ignore that predjudice is still a factor. I'm sorry it is, but it is. If I said one of them was divorced 3 times and I thought it would be a strike against them, would you feel the same way? I'm just trying to look at this objectively.

And as far as "still stealing the election no matter who it is", I agree, but many think that we can win, even if it's rigged as long as we win by a wide margin (too many to steal). I don't know which is true.

If you think the DNC would support an openly gay person for the nomination for the POTUS, you are not being realistic. That does NOT mean that I don't think an openly gay person could make a fantastic president. I don't understand why we cannot have a discussion about this.

If you said, no I think you are wrong, America is ready for a woman or a black, hispanic or some other minority for Pres. that would be a more appropriate response.

Perhaps it is I who should have phrased the question better. Perhaps I should have just asked if people thought we were ready and/or if so, is this the best time to test our theory. But we still would have had some people answer no (I presume) so we would have been right back here, I guess.
