We all know Hillary didn't win. But who would you have chosen to become America's first woman President?

I'm serious here!

Condi Rice, But she's too smart to put herself through the nonsense it takes to be President.

@FreeSpirit1 Condolezza Rice?! Are you kidding? After the way she behaved during the Bush administration, nobody on Earth should trust her.

What did she do? I was a Democrat at the time but not very informed about American politics.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Helganvisari25 She was basically the biggest cheerleader for the Iraq and Afghanistan invasions, second only to Dick Cheney.

Are you a Democrat? I know Democrats were against those wars. Those wars were costly to the American taxpayer during a time when America was struggling economically.

@cattleboy Oh, don't forget she advocated for the harvesting of opium from Afghanistan.

@Helganvisari25 No, I'm not a democrat. I'd say my political opinions line up better with what the democratic party is SUPPOSED to represent, but they haven't represented it in a long time.

@cattleboy Thanks to Bill Clinton repealing Glass-Steagal by signing the Gramm Leach Bliley Act, and then fucking Bush bringing on the subprime mortgage crisis by deregulating the ever loving shit out of the economy.

You are right about that. There was a time when Democrats and Republicans would back each other up on policies. Those days are long gone as they just mud sling each these days. I used to be a Democrat classic Liberal. Unfortunately, I voted for Obama twice.

@cattleboy Going after Bin Laden made sense, he did attack the United States. Invading the whole country was not the right way to do it but they got him, Bin Laden's dead, they can leave now. But noooooo, we have stay to get the Taliban! Because we apparently didn't learn from Vietnam that YOU CAN'T DEFEAT A GUERRILLA ARMY IN THEIR HOME COUNTRY.

Not to mention the Taliban controls as much as 40% of Afghanistan. The fuck are we doing.

I never liked Condi Rice to be honest with you.

@cattleboy If I had to throw my chips in with a party it might be DSA, although I admit they get a little squirrelly sometimes.

@cattleboy And it isn't like over 75% of the hijackers were Saudis, right? Lol cos we're still allied with them.

Oh wait...

I agree! We came dangerously close to having another depression.

@FreeSpirit1 Yeah, I agree and she's about the only one who's actually qualified but you're right, she would never play such a dirty game.

@Helganvisari25 My mother used to hate being in crowds, and whenever we would go shopping and the store was crowded, she would say obnoxiously loud "Where's the recession?!"
