Just examples of the kind of woman I would vote for, including if she were a minority. From what I have seen, I would be happy to have a seminar with Lani Guinier, but I would not, of course, vote for her. Let's see: Wendy Gramm, who is a Korean- American and works at the Heritage Foundation, would fit the bill, and so would Linda Chavez, although I am not sure she has the experience......

I'd prefer simply a color blind, unprejudiced vote in future elections, but if we where looking for only non-white females to be president I think I would greatly prefer Condoleeza Rice to Lani Guinier, although I'm not sure enough about some of Rice's views to know for sure if I would be a supporter of her or not.

Mainly I look for people who I am in political agreement with rather then someone of a certain sex or race. I can think of a number of conservative or libertarian white women or black men but not a lot of conservative or libertarian black women. But should such a candidate emerge her sex or skin color would not keep me from voting for her.
