Yes, I've inhaled. See, you can run for office and be honest. ![[Roll Eyes]](images/icons/rolleyes.gif) ![[Razz]](images/icons/tongue.gif) I can't imagine ANYONE EVER wanting to run for any office. It would terrify me! Someone mentioned Hillary being called names. I believe I recall Bush being called the one with no brain. Sounds like an insult to me. I think Hillary is and always will be touchy subject and we're all entitled to our thoughts on her. I have enjoyed the debate, bad jokes and all.

I wasn't livid. I was peacefully stating my opinion. It just seemed the discussion, however lightly intended, had gone into the toilet. But we are entitled to swim in the toilet if we want, and even consume it's contents. If Hilary runs I will vote for her. If Condi runs, I will not vote for her. Enough said. Politics is an ugly business. It brings out the worst in us all.

Actually, I love politics almost as much as I hate it. I love the ideal that our founding fathers set before us, but most days, when I hear the news, my heart just sinks.

Daisygirl,
My heart sinks too when I hear the news. One thing I do, is to wrap the whole planet in love. I know this might sound hokey, but I don't know what else to do. I picture this love in the form of a white rose. I place the whole planet in the center of the rose and have the rose start infusing it and everyone and everything on it with love. It's a form of active prayer, I guess.

Say I just realized this: did my topic(this one) get more posts than any other in this forum? If Chatty is going for a record with her postings I could say I have a record for this topic I started.

Some people have said they would never vote for a woman for president because of the "hormone" issue. I am always surprised to hear this come out of another woman's mouth. Usually men are the ones saying this.
I don't think President Bush has a uterus nor have any of the other presidents who sent our men and women off to war.
I think a woman in the White House could hardly do worse than what we've already had.
Whether it be Hillary Clinton or Condoleeza Rice I think a gender change in the White House would be a good thing. Other cities have had women as mayors and they have served their constituents well so why not a woman in the White House?

Ladybug, I also think it would be great to have a woman in the White House, as long as she's qualified (which goes for the men, too, of course). You've heard of that old saying "The hand that rocks the cradle, rules the world"? We women, even if we are not the majority in politics or business (though the numbers are going up), are the ones who really set the tone for our world. If the women in a society are moral and wise, the society does well. If the women become immmoral and foolish, the society goes down. I really believe we are the ones who make civilization, civil!! Who perpetuates most of the violence and hatred in our world? Men!
