Hearst Newspapers, also found that 81 percent of people surveyed would vote for a woman for president and 53 percent think New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (news - web sites) should try for the job. "

Tejek, can you believe there are 19% of Americans that think a woman shouldn't be president. The statistic implies one in five people are backwards.

Yes, and I think that percentage actually is bigger. People know its unPC so they don't admit where they really are at on the subject. Remember, we are the people that re elected Bush.

Glad to see Hillary with 53% votes. Given the 19%, the 53% actually garners more attention in that it's like saying 65% of all voters that believe in equality think Hillary should try for the job.

Read it carefully, Amy. They "think Hillary should try for the job". They didn't say they would vote for her. Remember this is the country that re elected Bush.

RE: "The pollsters found about 60 percent of voters said they expect a woman to be the Democrats' nominee for president in 2008. In contrast, they found 18 percent expected the Republican ticket to be headed by a woman. "

Meanwhile, Republican Party continues to alienate women from their pool.

Guess who will win in 2008 if the Dems have a woman run for president. Ann Coulter, a GOP stalwart, thinks women are too dumb and should not have the vote.
