Did someone ever say America isn't still ready for a President who could either be a women or a black? Yes, many do say. Well, this would make none other than John McCain the perfect individual for presidency. Nevertheless, many might speculate more; as we should be rather considering the real world facts. The American population is not made of one gender. But it's approximately half male and half female population, like everywhere around the globe. So if we want to believe males might not find Hillary as pretty as Cinderella, this theory would also support the fact that female voters would not hesitate to vote for her. However, does gender really matter? Probably in a much competitive hostile business world, the answer is 'no'. In religiously moderate countries like Bangladesh, India or Pakistan, female leadership was not only welcomed, but was supported and asked for. So, what's the problem with America? Who wants a Republican to stay in Oval Office? Democrats are already in. Let's just see whether it's Obama or Hillary this time.
