I heard this question the other day, and it really started me thinking.....
If Hillary wins the election, how are all these Arab nations and presidents going to relate to a WOMAN president?? I mean women, in general, are looked down upon and have no authority in the Arab world. Won't having a woman president put us in a dangerous position?? What do you think?

Indonesia, Turkey, Pakistan and Bangladesh have all had female Prime Ministers. These are Muslim nations.
The US on the other hand, the Deomcratic pride of the world, has never had a female President. The Muslim nations will have no issue with women leaders as they have already dealt with that bias, but how will the US relate to a female President is a much more apt question.

Yes, HS beat me to it.
I'll take Hillary Step for president. But he's English.

Uh, I don't know if you've noticed, but GW is a man and he's not held in high esteem by the Arab world.

Plus, I don't think the political leaders in these countries really buy into the religious crap. That's for the masses.
Hillary would be an excellent president.
She was behind Bill. The national debt went down and they showed they cared about the average citizen.
I say :
"IN 2008 VOTE VAGINA!"

. . . then Bill would be the First Gentleman, and Monica will be the First Humidor.

Somebody sent this to me, and I found it pretty interesting:
If Hillary wins in 2008 and Bill is 'appointed' to fill her Senate
seat and either live to retire 'they' (together or alone) would get
two US Presidential retirement checks, two US Senate retirement
checks, and a retirement check from the State of Arkansas .
About the only thing they MIGHT NOT get is a Social Security
check....but I wouldn't bet on it....
I understand ole Bill has earned $40,000,000 in the past six years.
What a guy!
AND THE REST OF THE STORY... Hilarious Rotten Clinton, as a New York
State Senator, now comes under the 'Congressional Retirement and
Staffing Plan,' which means that even if she never gets reelected,
she STILL receives her Congressional salary until she dies. (Would
it not be nice if all Americans were pension eligible after only 4
years?)
If Bill outlives her, he then inherits HER salary until HE dies. He
is already getting his Presidential salary until he dies. If Hillary
outlives Bill, she also gets HIS salary until she dies. Guess who
pays for that?
It's common knowledge that in order for her to establish NY
residency, they purchased a million dollar-plus house in upscale
Chappaqua , New York .
Makes sense!
They are entitled to Secret Service protection for life.
Still makes sense.
Here is where it becomes interesting. Their mortgage payments hover
at around $10,000 per month. BUT, an extra residence 'had' to be
built within the acreage to house the Secret Service agents.
The Clintons charge the Federal government $10,000 monthly rent for
the use of that extra residence, which is about equal to their
mortgage payment. This means that we, the taxpayers, are paying the
Clinton 's salary, mortgage, transportation, safety and security, as
well as the salaries for their 12 man staff -- and, this is all
perfectly legal!
As she runs for President, will YOU vote for her?
She rubs me the wrong way but anyone is better than Huckabee.

Who freaking cares what the Arab world thinks? She would not be their President, but ours (God help us). If the American people decide by democratic means to elect a woman, then so be it. You don't elect a President based on how other nations will "like" them. I include the Europeans in this also. They'll be a minority in their own countries in a couple of generations anyway as extreme secularism runs its course and as demography and power shifts to the more vigourous peoples immigrating there from the south and east.
