Does Hillary Represent What Women Want?


Watch this video of Cokie Roberts interviewing women about Hillary. What do you think about the interviews? Does Hillary represent you? Thanks to Amanda for forwarding this to me.

Obiviously, Hillary has been which I would like to call her an Iron woman, is definitely an ideal woman whom, all the american, men and women would take her as an idol. As the people who are being interviewed, I am not sure that everything they were saying is from their own belief, because there are many hippocrates people who would rather give a socially constructable answer rather than the truth when asked a question, which is called HALO EFFECT in political term. President is a commander in CHIEF of the army of the United States of America, and there are people in this country who might not tolerate a woman leading the country' amry. But when asked about the opinion they might take it very proudly, but who knows what is going on people's mind? Like Andrew Jackson said " Humans are not angel".

I think it would be a huge impact on society and the looks of women if Hilary became president. I believe that women would not be looked down upon as much anymore because a woman became president so that must mean we can do anything. I wouldnt say that Hilary represents me because at this point she is trying to win everyone over, not just women but men too. As fas as the interviews go I agree with the person above me, they may only being saying the things their saying because it is socially accepted in society. Some of the women may not be saying their true feelings, and if they didnt like Hilary which some of them may not, they probably are not going to admit that because to other women that would be unacceptable to turn down a candidate of our sex.

I believe that if a women is President the men in the world will be disgusted and it makes me mad like no other. I believe that it is time and I also believe that she does have the experience that one might need to become President. I was talking to my boyfriend about politics which was a bad idea, but he was trying to tell me that it would be the worst thing for the untied states to have a women President, he also said that the United States is not ready for one. That just sent me crazy. But as for the interviewers I also agree with the first comment, I wish i got to hear what they really wanted to say not just them all ice skating around what they really wanted to say.

I think Hilary represents a certain group of women but i do think that is a huge step in getting women in the fore front of society. If she is elected, she may not look out for everyone, who can, but she is someone who will stand her ground and not take crap from anyone, and i think thats important for women, to have someone who they can look up to and see that you dont have to be timid or afraid. I mean seriously, if she did become president, she couldnt possibly do worse then Bush, so obviously she is better then one man already.
