Yes Raphael, I think we know now what a joke it would be to even let her name come up in any election, no matter what level it is.

How have you been? Missing your lovely writes. But stay in course, I found out this forum is wild and just exploring to stir my banality in life.
Some are so ridiculously inane on here but there are some that are worth a pence in being involved.
Take care lovely lady and love you, too.

lindsyjones: You are one lovely lady Sandra and makes a lot of sense. Your young mind is so full of promise and it seems way too advance for the thinking of your age. But I am intrigued and invigorated to encounter such a brilliant mind like you.
Welcome to all my writes.
How long have you been here?
And this is the only site I have joined in.

I didn't mean to be rude Sandra. I just felt that you are a fresh new bloom here and you do bring light to a rather dark world, at least that is how I feel.
I have been here for so long but just attempted to be on the forum and it offers a wide variety of many topics. Just few however attracts my interest.
I am most enlightened to encounter you. Thanks.

rohaan: I am always amazed that The United States seems to be so archaic in this. What is so astonishing about having a woman president here? In countries where women are clearly not seen as "equal", there have been women leaders. Golda Meir, Indira Ghandi, to name a couple. Why do we have such a block about this? I, for one, believe it would be an excellent idea. Even better, a presidential team made up of a man and a woman, and several other men and women. JMO
I've wondered the same thing, given the technological advances and women being quite successful in law, medicine, business, etc. I think sometimes that we suffer from some sort of social schizophrenia. We have large voting blocks of extremely religious and extremely conservative people. Sometimes, living in more progressive states makes one forget the majority demographics and attitudes of the country.

Nidi, is our good old California? Will be flying back next week. Been away for so long and will be so glad to be back.
Anyways, our society is so conditioned on the submissive almost godlike treatment to man in general. I believe that it is more of a question for women to step up to the challenge than for a man to be blocking us on our aspirations.
I can see that while we do shout to have equal rights, words are just that, words. But when it comes to the actual substance of the force of wanting to be there, women are more slacking in the drive to move on.

LOL don't worry, and u r welcome. I try to be sweet, im not as sweet xD I follow the forum rules which it's a difference, but I have encountered folks that u talk bout bein inane... I try not to be rude with those folks as well, not just because of the forum rules only (which it's important) but also to keep my professionalism, as the professional that I am... which u know I certainly graduated from college, and I keep my behavior clean, to keep my background clean ;) but nobody's perfect though

At least we'll try.

lindsyjones: Now I get you. It would have definitely been a troubled leadership had she won. But so much for what didn't happen.
Yes indeed on choosing one as capable. But to me my position is indeed a bit disdainful because I always choose not because of gender per, se, I choose based on credit of performance. Obama isn't worth my respect as far as actions are concerned.
Having said that, I made my statement in the first pages that, IF WE HAD A WOMAN CONSIDERING THE FAILURE of the current one, and she's the same, then at least we try.
I will vote for a woman, and yes not at all if the only one running is Palin. SHE Is A Joke.

At least Hilary helped her husband run the country... I read in one magazine that Michelle Obama spent 60 something dollars in a shirt, and the pants were even more expensive. Sad thing, Obama allowed this, people in the US starve and yet, Obama's wife be buying expensive stuffs (I got this source from a magazine btw...) And if Michelle Obama ever decides to run for elections, I wouldn't vote for her... who knows where all the money would go...

How much did Nancy Reagan spend on an evening gown? Im not spending 60 on a shirt but the 1 % centers are probably laughing at how tacky and cheap (in their opinion) she is. Maybe a few zeroes were dropped from the 60.

I wouldn't quite question that Sandra, I am sure it's not excessive. They are given allowance and yes, maybe she should shop at Costco. I saw a Calvin Klein pants that I used to pay $300 bucks at Macy's 20 years ago is only $27 dollars now. Same quality, made in Cambodia, but fit was within my taste.
Yes she could have been more frugal.

They might consider her tacky and cheap, but for us... that's not cheap at all... u know where the money always comes from, and it might not be the first time she buys branded/expensive stuffs...

Sure not, but it can be excessive if done everyday for instance (wouldn't doubt that)... But u sweat ur own money Lindsy, u deserve those pants
now, u earn ur own money, presidents cannot use the people's money for personal use, yes they have their own salary, but im pretty sure they like to use our money too. And not forgetting wen Obama spent 3,000 dollars on three tuxedos, that were 1,000 dollars each. <--- People were furious about this, after all... who wouldn't be??------ This thread is Archived ------

Clark was the second female Prime Minister of New Zealand, serving three terms as Prime Minister, and being the leader of the Labour Party from 1993.
Clark's Government brought in significant changes to New Zealand's welfare system, most notably the Working for Families package. Her Government also changed the industrial-relations law, and raised the minimum wage six times. Other changes included the abolition of interest on student loans (after the 2005 election), and the introduction of 14 weeks paid parental leave. Helen Clark's Government also supported some highly controversial laws such as legal provision for civil-unions. Laws such as these somewhat shook the faith that the New Zealand public had in the Government.
Under the Helen Clark Government, New Zealand maintained a nuclear-free policy, thought to be at the cost of a free trade agreement with the United States of America. Clark and the Labour Party also refused to assist the United States in the Iraq invasion.
In March 2003, referring to the U.S. led coalition's actions in the Iraq War, Clark told the newspaper Sunday Star Times; "I don't think that September 11 under a Gore presidency would have had this consequence for Iraq." She subsequently sent a letter to Washington apologising for any offence that her comment may have caused.

She is now Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme. Forbes magazine ranked her 20th most powerful woman in the world in 2006 and 50th in 2012. In 2014, she rose to the 23rd position.
Helen, and away you went....
Sofia my dear poetess, how nice of you to grace my write. Been missing you in the corner for a while.
I didn't know you have some interest in the world of politics. But anyways, nice to see and read you here.
On your Prime Minister Helen Clark, I am not too keen about her but based on your contribution, it seems she did a great job for your country?
I am not sure what your fellow NZealander has to say about that.
