It might not be too long until we see a woman or a man in office, but I don't think that either of us will ever live to see the day when an American President wouldn't say that.

I think you being a little unfair to people generally.

I mean while you say, isn't it wrong to vote for Hilary just because she is a woman, I don't think that is neccessarily the only part of it.

You can't ignore the fact that Hilary Clinton has been in the media eye for a LONG time, she was elected at one stage, and she has gained enough support to launch a presidential campaign.

The same can be said about Obama, except he has not spent as long in the media eye.

This means it isn't just some random black man and a random woman. It is two people who have both been previously elected and whose policies have gained enough support to launch a campaign under the banner of the Democratic Party.

So it isn't JUST about being a Black Man and a Woman.
