I don't see a candidate on the scene right now, but it is going to have to be a candidate that people can look at as a leader and not as a man or a woman.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't think anyone should pick a candidate for any office based solely on gender. That would be, I believe, a mistake.
I'm not going to advocate for a female leader who I'm voting for solely on the basis of gender. And I think a lot of people feel that way.
We need women leaders. But we need them to have a vision for something.
I think people are looking for a president who has views and who sticks to those views. So, I think Governor Romney, Governor Perry, Governor Huntsman are all terrific candidates. I think we got a chance to elect a real, executive leader.
We're able to choose our candidate not based on gender or sex or anything else other than their ideas.
You can't exactly bake a man to your specifications. Most of all, one shouldn't alienate a candidate. A hybrid of Einstein, Tarzan and Inge Meysel doesn't exist. Besides, the images of politicians in the media aren't always accurate. I've had my share of experiences in that regard.
So many other countries have had female leaders, in fact the U.S. ranks 61st in female representation in government and I think it is startling and sign of a change that needs to be made.
You can't be the candidate and the campaign manager.
We need someone with proven conservative leadership experience, not entitlement, to be able to represent us and lead us.
We would all like to vote for the best man but he is never a candidate.
