| Women Are Never Front-Runners "Gender is probably the most restricting force in American life, whether the question is who must be in the kitchen or who could be in the White House. This country is way down the list of countries electing women and, according to one study, it polarizes gender roles more than the average democracy." Women Are Never Front-Runners - New York Times |

| I think the NYT should be in charge of elections. Instead of us voting, they should just pick a President they like and that's it.

| And Hillary is indeed a front-runner, so I have no idea what those freaks are talking about. Quote:

| I saw video of her "crying" for the first time last night. Talk about making something out of nothing. I didn't see one tear drop....she wasn't "crying". Not like John Boehner, who openly weeps on the House floor every chance he gets. |

| As Gloria Steinem is a self-described feminist, the column echoes her views. I just don't believe it's as bleak as she describes. Could be I spent my adult life in an organization that is a meritocracy, except at the higher officer ranks. How does a Colonel get to be a LTGEN in 3 years? Be a woman accusing a fellow General Officer of sexual harassment. The sword does cut both ways.
