Anyone admit to voting for her only because she was a woman?


Like I remember after Thatcher's death CNN reporter Christiane Amanpour said she only voted for her because she wanted to see a woman be prime minister. I'm not saying that wanting more women in government is a bad thing, but it just shows how we can turn a blind eye on our ideologies in order to appear more like an equal society.

Agreed-I hate when people don't vote for the BEST PERSON FOR THE JOB. Same goes with hiring and school admission acceptances-hire and accept based on probable ability.

It's so unfair isn't it? That must be why there have been so many woman prime ministers and so few men ones. The men can't get a look in.

For God's sake!
