- Why all 45 American presidents are men.

In 1788, Thomas Jefferson wrote that American women shouldn’t "wrinkle their foreheads with politics." A century and a half later, when Hillary Clinton was born, that attitude still prevailed.
That year, 1947, the US had zero female senators, zero female governors. The Supreme Court, and the Oval Office of course, had only ever seen men. It was only really in the past 40 years that women learned they could lead and men learned they could be led by women.
That revolution in American culture is still ongoing, but the idea that women are naturally unfit for government is now so alien to younger generations that many feel uncomfortable even considering the gender of a political candidate. The realities, however, lag behind the attitudes. Women make up only about 20 percent of the US House and the US Senate, and about 25 percent of state government.
Before 2008, no woman had come close to being nominated for president on a major party ticket. Before 2016, no woman had come close to winning the presidency. But Hillary Clinton is not the only trailblazer on the long path toward someday breaking America’s 240-year, 58-election streak of male presidents.
Through the '70s, '80s, and '90s, women in politics underwent the rocky process of teaching the country that they could be equally effective and competent leaders as men, a process that occurred in parallel at workplaces around the country. They dismantled stereotypes, named and condemned sexual harassment, and slowly erased the novelty of female decision-makers, at least at the legislative level. Their work is our inheritance.

What I found hilarious was when someone suggested that she might become unsuited for presidency due to "time of the month". Um, she was 68...
Patricia Handa lol
Ari Onassis-Sugen isnt trump (and Bernie Sanders I’m not biased) 70 something?
Yeah...that old codger piece of garbage made me ashamed for myself. You know his daughter (assuming he had one) probably wanted to slug him for saying that on CNN.
@@aaalex1311
The argument was not aiming at her being unfit or fit due to her age, but for the monthlies to not be a "problem" past the mid-forties which she clearly has passed at that point in time!
I'm curious... all these "ladies are too hormonal to make rational decision" argumenters should be all too happy to force a male president to take adrenaline inhibitors, no? But that is a hormone too and it can cause VERY irrational decisions in big, strong men!
Her age actually made her WAY more viable, IMO. In general terms, a post-menopausal woman would probably make the best, most compassionate leader while still maintaining an ongoing, consistent sense of logical thought. Followed by a guy older than 50. Guys under 50 and pre-menopausal women, no dice. There are times of the month when my chick says her “fingernails hurt” and to be honest, that’s no good...we can’t have that. Same thing with guys under 50. Too much piss and vinegar. All of these are generalities. There are exceptions to every rule, naturally.
So long as she does the job, I do t care what gender or color they are.
Just...no more Trumps. Ever.
Max Stone “Just...no more Trumps. Ever.”
Translation: Just...no more republicans. Ever.
Rain Clan FTW They know there’s absolutely nothing wrong with trumps presidency. What angers them is the fact that there is a republican in office and the fact he’s doing a good job adds more fuel to the fire.
@@henrycejudo6168 exactly 👌👌 👌
Agreed
@@henrycejudo6168 As someone from Europe, it's hilarious seeing Americans hate on Trump even though he's objectively doing an amazing job for your country.
OMG ..a black women was first to file a nomination..that say's it all
@Dave Almighty come on genius it was a mistake
There were women who ran before women even had the right to vote.
@Dave Almighty if you say so
@Dave Almighty Alright buddy.
Nicki Minaj for president please omg
I always think it's funny when people bring up women being too emotional for politics. Almost every war EVER was started by men. If flying into rage and attacking another country - to threaten violence because you couldn't come to a better solution - isn't the most emotionally charged thing I've ever heard, I don't what is.
Most wars are waged for resources, next are beliefs like religion and political systems.
that might have something to do with every leader being a man.. Also wars arent declared just because the leader of the country wants it, it's discussed and voted on etc etc.
Your sexist
@Human Resources What % of deaths in war are women? hmm
@Human Resources what % of deaths are women? hmm
She didn't lose because she was a woman.
Exactly, She was corrupt, deceitful, easily bought and a person who was the subject of at least two active FBI investigations.
Thank you people still don't get that...
Hillary Clinton didn't lose because she was woman... she lot because Hillary Clinton is Hillary Clinton...
genius
Joshua Anderson I'm sorry,is this buzz feed or something?
Vel what is your question/point?
Listen I'm all for a female president just not her.....
blah vlah
the video is not about her.
I forgot about her.
And I'm all for a tactless, bigoted, inexperienced, thrice-bankrupt, hatemongering orange president just not-
Oh wait, no I'm not.
blah vlah not she was a better option not ideal but better out of the two...😥
HomicidalDonut Hillary is just as bad.
i like how that dude said "scolding mother" like it's a BAD thing. I mean, no one likes their mother scolding them, but yo..isn't that EXACTLY what you want out of a leader? a "scolding mother"? i.e. someone who cares enough to correct you, and is tough enough to do it harshly if needed?
He had mommy issues
I agree
The nation needs a guider and a helper, the one they can trusy
Mother who scolds are common and just doing their job as a parent, that what leader does as well too
Here I am in 2020 with Kamala Harris as vice president. She is the first women in office, but most certainly wont be the last.
Sad we have forced diversity instead of it being natural. Sexism and racism is taught in America.
Plus she has a huge chance at actually becoming the president
🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂
@Zachary Williams the second why?
@Zachary Williams the second your profile picture really checks out
Today at school was chaos. A teacher let us debate and I was quite afraid...
Syd Fitz don't ever be afraid to stand up for what you believe in...just know when you're standing over people
Syd Fitz same. Half the teachers were absent too
Don't be afraid to stand up for the Trumpster. you got half of America behind you
Everyone cheered when someone brought in a Trump flag
Trace Swann which is sad
Why does everything have to be about race or gender? Why cant we just elect someone because they're the best candidate?
Have you watched the video?
Gilga mesh I don't know. Why can't you?
Gilga mesh We didn't elect Clinton either way.
JP de la Torre They couldn't have. The video is 15 minutes long and this comment was written 8 minutes after it was posted.
If it was about being the best candidate Trump definitely wouldn't have won
People are saying down in the comments that they would only vote for someone they agree with, and we should never vote for woman on the basis of her being a woman. Well, i am saying that you have missed the entire point. Vox is only having the conversation on women deserving to be president, ALREADY GIVEN they have every bit as qualified, every bit as deserving to lead as a man running for president.
‘i am not asking for you to vote for me because im a woman. But i am asking you to vote for me based on my merits. And i believe that one of those merits is that im a woman.’
And, looking at the sad excuse for a president we have today, can you really say with yr whole heart that trump is more qualified than Hilary Clinton for the President of the United States? Now, I am only making the comparison between her and Trump because they RAN for the presidency at the same time. I am not saying that Hillary is perfect, or that she is the best example of a woman for president, as she has made some mistakes, but we are only human arent we? But looking at Trumps Mistakes, if they can be labelled as mistakes at all, Hillary’s look abysmally small.
Ah yes, because starting WWIII is really abysmally small.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 get ready for hateful comments but speak your truth
Hillary repeatedly said that she was an “outsider” because she is a woman. She played the woman card every few minutes.
100% truth!
@@justinlokere Yeah, that wouldn't have been a valid reason to vote for her. But like what, like every card Trump played wasn't much dumber than that.
Like yes, Hillary wasn't a good candidate with all the nonsense. But she was bad in that classic way... Just even considering having Trump as a candidate made the world lose their respect for the US, and then you went and actually elected him... I mean, the US might never recover from this. Everyone thought Bush was bad, then Obama - more popular than anyone except Kennedy.. and then Trump. The final straw for most other countries.
Of course Bernie was the only sane option.
You are all missing the point of the video - it’s not that all of our past presidents don’t matter or weren’t doing well because they weren’t women; it is simply pointing out the fact that not enough people take women in politics, especially women that put their names up for a shot at the presidential ticket.
As disappointed as I am about the result, I feel more sorry for Hillary. She literally gave it everything she had. She outperformed him in the debates, she was more knowledgeable on a majority of key issues, and she spent the last 30+ years fighting for her passions. It's just saddening that it just wasnt enough.
Steven Samuel well put👌🏼
Steven Samuel yeah, she should have won
she wanted a no fly zone in Syria which would start war with Russia
And she was so close too. So sad that it may take a while for another woman to be as successful in the campaign.
She won the popular vote!
It'll eventually come when this woman (meaning any woman) is more likable. Hillary felt more like a robot and I can see why she underperformed Obama because Obama is just simply more charismatic and gave reasons for voters to be enthusiastic.
MANTLE when I said she I meant a woman and not Hillary. You're right she'll be too old.
bernie sanders is old, he still ran Kris Reese
Yeah that FEELING! FEELING feeling feeling - makes a racist sexist orange man baby become president.
A clean (or at least cleaner) record would also be a big help. One that isn't riddled with scandals
GentlemanWiz yup that too.
Watching these women made me feel so uplifted: Keeping fighting, keep going. These women are intelligent and strong and brave. And I’m happy that we got to see a candidate almost get there. Because it means we’re almost there.
Why? Because they're women and they're of your tribe? Sexist and limited thinking.
Intelligent, strong and brave.....doesn't automatically mean COMPETENT.
Lensman why? because women were fighting for the ability to run for president for decades, and it wasn’t easy for them AT ALL. that’s why they inspire the author of the comment.
What if we never have a women as president in the USA? What if they simply don’t like to run and those that do are not qualified? Eventually we probably will and we should considering that women CAN do the job but if they don’t then what’s the difference? Elect a good leader. That’s it.
What if the first women president was a dictator? Would you still vote for her because she's a woman?
Imagine how different things would've been today if Sherley was elected back in the 70s
Not very different maybe worse
worse
That timeline must have been much better than the current one
Maybe worse lol
With the oil crisis and us political rivals rising? Much much worse
I live in Germany and there are literally no benefits to a female leader. Its about the character not the gender.
That's why I love Germany, I have the impression that it's a very fair country. I feel like you're all very hard working wether you're aware of it or not and take hard work and actual skills very much into consideration
It's about breaking the glass ceiling and representation
Well, Merkel is good in my opinion not just because she’s a woman.
In the words of Sandra Day O'Connor "I think the important thing about my appointment is not that I will decide cases as a woman, but that I am a woman who will get to decide cases." It's about the fact that women make up 50% of the population of the world, so why shouldn't we hold elected office?
It is all about character and not gender, which makes it very notable that the presidential characters in America have exclusively been on one gender.
I feel so bad for Hillary. First, she lost to Obama, which is understandable. But then, she lost to a fool? She must feel bad.
Meow Glab couldn't it possibly be her own fault for losing to a "fool"? Why feel bad for her unless she lost unfairly?
CLG Pyrex hey, she did. she got 200,000 votes more than trump, so she didn't lose to a fool. she lost to a system the fool complained about until he won.
Still, if that many people are voting for trump, that says more about Americans than it does about the candidates. America deserves Trump if they're that retarded.
He didn't win the popular vote though...
Tip to Hillary, do not go against people of color
"Most men are more emotionally suited" uhhhh yeah most men i know throw rage fits....but suRe
Weronika Iwańciów sure karen
Exactly! Men are emotional too but we get pegged for it. We can't win!
Albrim Kastrati ok kyle. or are you a chad? brad?
You’ve never seen trump, he organised an interview to answer reporters questions, but when the reporters tell the truth , he acts like a child and then be like “ I’m Sick of this , stop nagging like a child , *I QUIT* “ and then he rage quits..
Or they cause wars
Who’s here after Biden won and Harris became the first black and Asian heratage women Vice President
Me!
Yes🥰
Currently trying to figure out how to time travel to January 20, 2021.
@Jimmy Carter true, I like you
She's not black people, she's Asian/Jamaican but NOT black
Why does it matter what the president's gender is? As long as that person is qualified
Shane Alexander No conservative bashed her for being a women, unlike what the media suggests. I'm sure if another less scandalous female candidate like Michelle Obama ran in the Democratic Party they would likely win. Jill Stein was a great candidate but the Green Party just wasn't big enough to sway voters for them. Hillary was qualified but just isn't trustworthy with all her controversies even within the Democratic Party. That's why the popular vote went to Bernie but Hillary was nominated regardless because of the super delegates.
***** It no longer does
yeah...not anymore it seems.
+J eL the last few years probably because the only one running wasn't a great candidate
Because women are not typically leaders. We all carry genes fit for life 10,000 years ago, it's just the way it works.
America's problem is that they refuse to work with more than two parties, which will ultimately be it's downfall.
No it isn't, it's that in our war of electing, it's nearly impossible for a third party to be elected, there is a CGP Grey video about this (i think it's first past the vote but im unsure)
Two party systems isn't bad? If we had a third or fourth party that mattered in this election, we would had avoided only choosing Trump or Clinton
Well then we have to change how we vote. Lets say we have a four party system and lets say A gets 30 points, while B gets 5, C gets 20, and D gets 15. A would be out because although A has a higher number, B,C,and D equal higher than it (40). Now it's down to 3 candidates, then work your way with the same steps till you get one candidate
+Joey
"2 party system prevents the minority of winning"
Hillary and trump were the two most unfavorable candidates ever. Trump winning, is the minority winning and not only because he got less votes than Hillary, but because many (if not even most) who voted for trump, actually just voted against Hillary.
There are over 300 million ppl in the US and Trump was chosen by 13 million to be the republican nominee, and of the 60million who voted him into office, many just saw him as the smaller ill.
If you think that isn't "the minority winning" then you should look up the word minoity!
+Joey
"Unpopular candidate...hitler didn't even get 30%"
Depends on how you see it you are right out of the wrong reason or totally wrong!
First of he was pretty popular (much more popular than trump is in the US right now)
But yes Hitler got less than 30%, actually he got 0% of the votes (which is less than 30) as the Weimarer Republic (like Germany today) didn't elect the government leader directly.
But Hitler was elected as supreme leader by over 66% of parliament, so he wasn't a minority but a super majority candidate and this way they could change the constitution (pretty much like it would be in the US).
Hitler was voted into power by a coalition of nationalistic, Christian, centrist and conservative parties, while the only opposition came from the SPD (social democrats) and KPD (communists).
It's actually been proven that men are more emotional, but women just express their emotions better. The expression rather than suppression of emotion is also healthier for the individual, which is probably why men are more prone to explosions of anger and frustration. But yeah, "men are better suited emotionally"
@Lesana maybe men live shorter casue Men go to wars and most jobs that will tire the Body is done by men. Most females either sit at home or work on a computer men on the other hand do jobs that tires their bodies alot. And also Women age faster than men
Here's the thing sweetheart men are driven by logic and facts women are ruled by their emotions most women don't even understand what they emotionally respond to.
@@longstrong232 Careful, your misogyny is showing
Baller Shot Caller facts. In another article, they clarified the differences between emotional expression and emotion. Most researchers agree that women are more expressive with their emotions (cuz its more socially acceptable) while men are the more emotional ones but don’t express it.

Oesca123 Hillary won the popular vote

Oesca123 litterally

Oesca123 not exactly
I feel ashamed that I haven't heard of any of these inspirational women.
That's because feminists try to push the most bullshit role models instead of actually decent ones like say Margret Thatcher (British PM), or Sandra O'Connor (US supreme court justice appointed in the early eighties).
They'd have a much stronger case if they pushed female role models based on actual, real achievements, of which there are many, instead of only selecting ideologues aligned with the feminist movement that you have never heard of.
BosonCollider The video was about female US politicians idiot. Thatcher isn't American, and that Sandra O'Connor person is not a politician.
@@BosonCollider THATCHER? REALLY.
I think all over the world woman have proven themselves to be strong capable leaders. In the US its just going to be finding the right candidate.
The sad thing is, Warren could've had a real chance if it wasn't for the fact that it is very hard for any Dem to go up against Trump and have the chance of winning. This race isn't just about having the best policies as a Democrat, but also having the ability to convince the public that they can beat Trump. If it were any other Republican politician, I think Warren would've had a real chance to have blown them out of the water, but maybe in 2024 she'll try again.
I've seen this video so many times and I get teary eyed every single one of them. So empowering! My favourite Vox video by a long shot.

Erock Stoenescu yes as in maybe. who knows how trump will do during his term considering he has no previous governmental or military experience. not to sound rude but Trump doesn't seem as fit as hillary. maybe once trumps term is over we will elect hillary.. or just not.
Rapture Z Hillary is politically finished. Also, trump will be surrounded with highly experienced advisors and staff. I guarantee most people will be pleasantly surprised with trumps presidency. If not and he's an epic failure we vote him out in 4 years. But for now we celebrate and countdown the 60+ days 👯

why do people in the US Care so much about gender, in Indonesia we dont Care if it's a men or a woman running the presidential candidate, we just vote the best person
We don't. There just isn't much room for the softness and sympathy that most women have. If a more hardened and republican woman ran and she was the most qualified the election would probably be hers.
Some of us come from a history of sexism. The rest of us are trying to compensate for it.

I truly wish Hilary had beat Trump. She won the popular vote, so I feel she should have been President. Trump would resort to critiquing looks because he can't beat her on qualifications or serious topics.
He did beat her on serious topics. That’s why he won. Winning a slim majority isn’t enough to win the office why should it be. She isn’t that qualified anyways.
@@kordellswoffer1520 ok let's talk qualifications shall we? Hillary Clinton has a law degree and was considered so gifted she was invited to work on Richard Nixon's impeachment. I believe this was before she married Bill. She also helped Clinton draw up the family/ medical leave act( there is more) and has been working in the government in some form all of her life. What qualifiers did Trump have? T.V. host??? Last, I don't call 3 million votes a slim margin.
DAAAAMN THE MUSIC IS ON POINT
if only i can know what the piano piece was called man....
FOREAL I KEEP RE WATCHING IT CAUSE OF THAT
I'm fine with a woman president. But we should vote for a president based on what kind of president they would be. Not based off of their private parts.
Same , I support a woman president but she has to be qualified and has the brain for the job ! Not just because she is a woman
AND NOW WE HAVE OUR FIRST EVER WOMEN OF COLOR VICE-PRESIDENT KAMALA!!!!!!
Do you actually like Kamala because of her policies or just because she's a women
@@jelkrette1955 bcz she is woman
Still no president though. We as a nation have decided that we will elect a black man before we elect a white woman as president.
*woman
When I saw Hillary’s concession speech not gonna lie I shed a tear
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Crying for a politician
If you guys are wondering how the world will look soon, I visit abandoned places. haha

I've watched two vox videos relating to Hillary Clinton today. One change my view on her and the other made me actually upset. I am not a man feminist it's just that the fact she said "we haven't cracked that highest and hardest glass ceiling" and then again when she said it in her 2016 concession speech, it really opened my eyes up to how deserving she was. The first was about how she truly was a deserving candidate but just couldn't get that message across. She deserved it so much more than Trump. We elected the wrong candidate America, I hope we realize that and don't make the same mistake in 2020.
Thank you
Who wurt you
I love your logic
Ima vote for osama bin laden her best freind
And US is finally close to breaking that Glass ceiling.. :)
I'm not American, but really it would be a dream if Michelle Obama ran for president someday!
OMG I NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT!!! And there’s a possibility since she’s fairly young. Imagine 10-15 years from now she runs
But what would she do..! Wasn't she just a wife of Obama? Not a politician..
@@chitrikart2328 I mean, she graduated from two Ivy League colleges, Harvard and Princeton. If Trump can become President, I'm pretty sure that Michelle Obama is more than qualified to become President.
@@a1001ku She also is a husband to a war criminal who ruined Americas healthcare
@@RobertWelles Yeah, and Trump caused a country to get over 9 million cases and killed at least 220 thousand people.
How sensitive do you have to be as a human when 'female' and 'women' are mentioned in the title and you have the compulsive need to dislike the video and say that feminism is a joke? Please grow up. You're not being cute.
fone bone You know that was their reason, do you. No you don't, but I understand that honesty from someone who can say such a comment will never be forthcoming.
How stupid do u think that they should use female and women in the same video. Well to speak ur language its intent not the content.
I have nothing against a female president but Hillary is a joke, and so is first world feminism.
Thank you for patronizing 3,500 people and presuming facts about their personality form literally one click.
I agreed with your comment, aside from the last part. Feminism has become a massive joke, particularily in the 1st world, where it's really not needed anymore.
can we just take a moment and appreciate the quality of this?
I’m ready for a woman president🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Me too,We need a Margret Thatcher not a Hillary Clinton
Exactly,We made that mistake with Obama,Sure it was a landmark achievement but he was the worst person we could have given that achievement too
😂 Nah
No thanks
Someday we will break that glass ceiling🤞🏻
I owe so much to these women. Thank you.
What about the men who got blown up, mutilated in order to achieve this free society?
+alejandromolinac I understand what you mean, but that is irrelevant due to the fact that this video solely based its topic on women, and so has this comment. Men are irrelevant to the conversation at the moment.
+alejandomolinac But what about the men who come to every comments section on a video/article centered on women's issues crying "what about the men?"?? Lol here's an idea - actually watch this video, and go into it with an open mind, not just ready to snap to the classic "what about men?" response. You might learn something, ya jabroni!
Please owe Hillary for letting 8 people dying! Please owe her for email scandals! RESPECCCC
Bling Boy didn’t Hillary win the popular vote by 2,000,000 votes. How does it work if you say trump is better, yet the majority of people disagree with you?
I've always wanted to venture into the field of political science and now this video has given me the confidence to reach my dreams!
Should have seen 2018 midterms
More than 100 women
I needed this. Thanks
I really appreciate your guys videos. They're all packed with knowledge,facts & are well executed. love love love
I can't be the only one who's watched this at LEAST 5 times? lol... I LOVE THIS VIDEO.
Lol same
this is my favorite video. thank you
The whole Anita hill thing is disgusting what happened to jury of your peers? She's such an amazing and brave woman
Not sure why people are downvoting this, its not even about trump...
I think because it's about how people vote for female presidents JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE FEMALES.
If I had to guess, people are downvoting because of the overall premise; that it matters whether or not a woman has been president. A lot of people disagree that the glass ceiling HAS TO be broken because of history, and that somehow makes Hillary a better candidate.
Further, that we live in an age where identification with your own gender (something that you don't have control over) in terms of personality is something that you ought not to be proud of.
Something like that!
It's propoganda.
Because it's DNC propaganda
Adam Smith it's not wrong, or misleading. It's about how there's never been a female president, how people were too sexist to ever want a female president and how things are changing. It's informational too, don't click on the video if you're not going to even think about what's being said before calling it fake news and going crazy.
As long as we vote based on policy and not whatever's between their legs, I'm okay.
I absolutely agree AND this also applies to skin color. I dont give a care in the world if a trans black women is sitting in the oval office,I just want lower taxes and keep my guns
Why does it matter if someone is a women or not. The only thing that matters is if they are good at running a country
If people picked like that, then there wouldn't be this issue, people are picking men to be president at a much higher rate than women despite similar ideals and credibility.
Who's here after Kamala Harris became vice president?
No one
The fight continues in 4 years
Marcus Eaton I don’t think he was talking about Hillary
The fight shouldn't be if the president is a woman.
It should be if they care for the people, it should be if you agree with them, and as someone else in this comment section said.
If they're a woman, cool.
1 year now
Trump 2020 fam
Great video joss, love the topic, and explanation. Don't let the dislikes get to you and your team!
Both my parents have worked for my whole life, with the exception of my earlier years when my dad entered seminary to become a pastor.
I really don’t understand how some people can still be sexist today LOL
Jacinta Ardern. Became NZ PM and had a kid
Then took everyone's guns. Less than 50 of the 300,000 owners turned then in. L.O.L.!
@@tubularguynine
Source?
@Joseph Zhang she does her job right.
@@tubularguynine Has NZ had a mass shooting after she "took away" people's guns
@@tubularguynine I saw one of those gun-for-money events they ran, in a city with about 398,000 people, and there were well over a hundred people there not including the organisers. And it wasn't everyone's guns, just those equipped for mass murder.
3000 dislikes on this video? One clue that this country is still in the stone ages
Phillip Hudson that's not true, there are plenty of good people who care for everyone, like myself
No it's that I want a GOOD president, male or female, White, Black, Latino, Eastern Asian,
Maybe it's because this entire video about female politicians, and NOTHING about their policies. They didn't mention if the other women were not elected due to their policies or sexism, they just assumed everybody knows it must be sexism.
Phillip Hudson because of feminazi propaganda
;-; ;-; Also that Philip might be living in the stone age because he wants women to be princesses that will not be judged on and not treated like men.
fantastic. everyone needs to watch this video as a reminder of the struggles so many women had so that we can enjoy the freedoms that we do today. we owe it to these inspirational women to keep challenging harmful stereotypes.
This video always makes me tear up. I’m still waiting for that glass to break & the light to shine through.

Update: Kamala Harris is becoming the Vice President of the United States
I go to school in Alabama, and sadly a lot of arguments were that there are some things women shouldn't do
Nobody asked
Someday: The long fight for a good president.
Someday: The long fight for an honest president.
Someday: The long fight for a great president, regardless of gender.
Let's focus on the job they do, not what does and doesn't hang in between their legs.
Matt Kay Obama was great... He will be remembered. Even if he wasnt he was the 1st black president
“Qualification” is just an excuse, if Trump can be president. Then any random person from the street is qualified.
He went bankrupt multiple times and defrauded thousands of people of their hard earned money. So his “business acumen” is also questionable.
He didn't went bankrupt his companies went bankrupt.
He intentionally made those companies go bankrupt, he's actually a really good businessman. The biggest qualification of being a good businessman? Being a scumbag.
6:00 the question isn't if she could push it, it's if it would be a sage decision to do so. The one that shouldn't be president is the one that would answer "yes without a doubt" to that question
I agree with you on the without a doubt,But we do need someone that is willing to empty the silos before the silos get obliterated...
Then if that's the question, I think the more appropriate answer should be, "Yes I would if I had to if we've tried every other option".
Yes it would be nice to have a president who is a woman... but Hillary wasn't my first choice either...
maszlagma she had wayy too much dirt on her that people could use to sewer her reputation tbh. I’m all for a female president but Hillary was a bad choice to be pushed as the first real chance @ a female POTUS
maszlagma I hope Elizabeth Warren runs in 2020, she'd make a fantastic president
Ewan Oxborrow I don't
Women should run more candidates. They seem to want to put all their eggs into one basket, or no basket at all.
@@meganh9460
Uhh over 100 women have been elected for congress in the last election... that may be a far cry from 268 (1/2 of the 535 seats in congress plus 1 president) but it's about twice what was previously there. And not a few of these women also RAN against other women instead of men.
Which means that in 20 years we might be at 50/50 as it should be. With the candidates elected for their qualifications or policy ideas instead of for what's in between their legs.
in India we had first ever woman president - Pratibha Patil!❤
Indira Gandhi but assassinated by the Sikh guards.
@@joshuabalondo4454 she was the prime minister, there's a difference

At least we got a woman Vice-President!
