See, the politics of politics drive me crazy. Voting for Hilary because Hilary is female doesn't fly with me. As much as it's idealistic, her gender should be irrelevant. Although, I understand the impulse and the reasons for behind it.
Race and gender ARE issues in our society, so I can see how they are considerations, but because it doesn't have anything to do with the qualifications for a persons ability to be in public office, I can't count it.
