It's way past time for our country to have a female President. But I want a female candidate only if she is the best candidate and can really win. (Think Obama. Who cared about his race, besides bigots? He was clearly, to me, the best candidate. An exceptional candidate. Others were good, but he stood out in the crowd.)

We're not going to find another Obama. But that's what I use as the measuring stick.
