Poll question: One of these two women will become our first American president.
If it's not Hillary, it's going to be Condoleeza Rice. That much is in the cards.

Who will be the first woman president of the United States?

27. Nope. too late for that.
They would never nominate Condi and depend on their racist base to give her the primary. Had Cheney resigned due to "health reasons", they could have turned Condi into the female Jerry Ford, sneaking her in as veep. She would probably get easy confirmation in the Senate, because they have already confirmed worse. Chimpy would then resign if Chimpeachment was ever "back on the table", and voila... instant incumbent Condi.

But with less than a year to the election, and indeed just weeks to the "official" start of the primary, by the time all of the above would take place, Condi's "incumbency" would be a matter of weeks, maybe a couple of months if she was lucky.

And even then, the racists probably wouldn't "re elect" her.

18. This brings up a question. If Hillary DOESN'T get the Presidency this time,
would she run in the next election do you think? Or is this her only real window of opportunity?

19. If those are the only ones in the cards
you'd better ask for a new deck.

As things stand now I think the first woman president might be Angelino Jolie.

Now THAT would be something to see. Every straight male in the country would sit up and pay attention to anything she said.

30. You got that right. Many of Hillary naysayers on DU will get a bitter pill to swallow
if they're successful in all their smear campaigns towards her, that pill being Condi of course. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if some of Hillary's naysayers are stupid enough that they'd rather have Condi. lol

21. Oprah would be elected before Condi.
Condi is never going to run.

SHe has never held elective office and she has no record to run on.

or a prominent government position.

26. First there's a tear in the space/time continimium
Or you know, we invent time travel. We send Hillary OR Condi back to 1776. I'm thinking Hillary, since Condi being black and all wouldn't go over will with the founding fathers. Then Hillary, using powers from today, convinces Washington that he shouldn't be the first president, that we should start with a female. Thus, Hillary is the first American president.


Duh. :P

31. You wrongly discount Barbara Boxer, Janet Napolitano, Patty Murray, Kay Bailey Hutchison,
Lisa Murkowski, Blanche Lincoln, Dianne Feinstein, Mary Landrieu, Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, Barbara Mikulski, Debbie Stabenow, Amy Klobuchar, Claire McCaskill, Elizabeth Dole, Maria Cantwell, Sarah Palin, Jodi Rell, Ruth Ann Minner, Linda Lingle, Kathleen Sebelius, Kathleen Blanco, Christine Gregoire, and a hundred other Republican and Democratic woman who are ALL better that Condoleeza Rice (and a few of whom -- Barbara Boxer, for one -- are better than Hillary).

32. OMG!!!
So, the other 43 were just figments of our imaginations?

All of them were American (since you have to be born in America to be president). Perhaps you would like to insert the word "female" in there somewhere?

As for the premise that it will be one of them, I find that ridiculous. Like they are the only two women qualified to be president?

Though she's been under the (media) radar lately, she's a conservative prospect.
