Hillary Clinton for President?

    Should the USA ever have a woman President?

    It it safe to have a female who is at the mercy of PMS for 5 days a month to be in control of the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world. Although Ireland has had female Presidents the most dangerous thing they ever controlled was the switch for the Christmas lights, not the "big red button".

    When Bill's hormones got the better of him it resulted in a blow-job.
    When Hillary's hormones get the better of her will it be a blow-up-job?

    Are women losing the run of themselves and going power mad?

    Every war and genocide in the world has been started by men, so putting a woman at the helm would be an improvement. Then again, putting Kermit the Frog at the helm would be better than George Bush!

    I'd like to see her do it, if only so that the roll of presidents will read:

    Bush
    Clinton
    Bush
    Clinton

    I don't buy that argument. Women always claim "Behind every successful man there is a woman" so it's a fair bet the poor guy was manipulated by the missus into starting the war.
    You can't claim credit for the good stuff if you won't take responsibility for the bad stuff.

    Agreed. But not Miss Piggy.

    She wont get it anyways


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    I think they should give it to the black guy whose name rhymes with Americas biggest enemy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,134 ✭✭✭Lux23


    Sure a woman can be president but I really don't think it should be Hilary Clinton, she wouldn't be much of a change from Bush really.

    I doubt Hilary still gets PMS, she is nearly too old.

    I think it will be Obama.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    I think it will be a white male, and that anyone of a different gender/race has fúck all chance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,191 ✭✭✭Feelgood


    Isn't it strange though that we actually give a sh1t when it comes to US presidents and why do we care more to the point?. When the US elections come up it dominates the news around the globe, however I don't even know who the Canadian president is, nor have I heard anything about their elections, yet in my opinion they are a far superior nation...

    The US haven't an iota of culture sure they all want to be bloody Irish!, yet we hold them in such high regard.....strange as fcuk..

    WTF - Conspiracy theorists like c'mon wake up already !?!?!!?!?!?

    P.S. I'd rather see Osama Bin Laden as US President than that evil, devious, corrupt little schemestress puppet Hillary.

    the canadian president doesnt affect Ireland like the US one does...politically and economically.
    i think hillary would be a good president FWIW.

    They really don't all want to be bloody Irish, the majority of Americans haven't a clue where Ireland is or have any degree of knowledge about us.

    They're favourite question is:

    "<insert anything, for example: roads/houses/thanksgiving/the wheel>, Y'all got that there!?"

    if soemone gave me a ballot paper with only George Bush and Hillary Clinon on it, they wouldn't have to put a gun to my head, i'd have already happily ticked GWB and handed it back.

    Hillary is a repulsive human being.


    thank **** her campaign seems to be imploding.

    I dunno, I'm not much on history.
    They weren't appointed or anointed. They took it. :p
    They don't have kudos, they have power.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 950 ✭✭✭EamonnKeane


    Yes, but we don't really care about other important countries: very few people could tell you the name of the Japanese PM (Yasuo Fukuda), or the president of China (Hu Jintao), or the Indian Prime Minister (Manmohan Singh). These three countries also have a huge influence on the people of the world.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭connundrum


    I'd vote Obama, or O'Bama as he's known in Offaly.

    If Portlaoise can have a black mayor than the US can have a balck president. He won a caucaus in Iowa, one of the most wapish states in America so I reckon Obama has quite a good chance to win. Not every American is a racist, you have to remember a huge portion of the electorate aren't actually white.

    True, distinct lines can be drawn between the mayorship of Portlaoise and U.S presidential politics. :p

    Maybe it's because they don't have a president in Canada? Their head of state is Elizabeth II.

    Don't think one person is going to be able to make the radical change that the US needs though, they will still be a bunch of nutjobs....

    Not to worry anyway, apparently by the end of 2008 China will be the biggest English speaking country in the world and possibly the next superpower?.

    Osama v Obama - the wordplay possibilities are endless ! Well ok maybe not quite as endless as you'd think.

    Re hilldog so long as she is checked for snukes and is pms free there are no more risks than normal - besides bill will be there to take over if it gets too much :) I did see john mc cain promise to catch osama though so maybe he will come back in the polls ?

    I honestly don't like Hillary. She will always be a PMRC tout to me.

    American politics is awful but if I had to choose, I think Obama would do well.
    A lotta people claim he's too inexperienced but so were Roosevelt and JFK who did fine (although JFK died awful quick)

    Jobs. To name just one contribution.

    To say that the US Election has no baring on the rest of the world just because you don't like America is a tad blinkered. And just before anyone calls me a yankee lover, im no fan of America's policies eitehr.

    And for all those who seem to think that Obama has no chance because he is a black man says an awful lot about your own prejudices. If I like a candidates policies and I think they are an honest (for a politician anyway) I will vote for them no matter what their colour or creed. And I assuming thats how most people look at things even if they are white americans.
