Of course, of course. It must the Catholic Church trying to keep Hillary out of office. How could I have been so obtuse about the real issue at hand. The pope is trying to keep Hillary down.
Or maybe the issue is that she exagerated. If she was such an integral part of the process before why wasn't it published in all the papers. Oh yeah, I forgot the Catholic Church probably programmed the men to leave it out of print.
Perhaps,just perhaps. The Irish were able to do it themselves? Perhaps it is more plausible to some to believe that Hillary visited Ireland a few times and swayed a nations women to change the country forever. Powerful stuff. Bet the Catholic Church is scared.
More likely it would be my guess that the women of Ireland, strong as they are, and the men of Ireland decided it was time for change. Hillary just happened to be there when it happened.
The real pulpit here isn't the arguement about women vs. men as leaders it is that this particular women has never led, and rather than establishing her credentials in a manner every other qualified individual must. She will ride on the laurels of her husband and act as though 4 years in the senate from a state she never had lived in before suddenly qualifies. To me it is akin to ordering a degree from a prodigious University online. Having the pedigree doesn't make you qualified.
Understandably, women have always had a harder time in a male dominated world. Women are in many ways stronger than men. I don't know however if this canditate is the proper one to break the glass ceiling in America, because what she does as president will speak to every American in the future about the effectiveness of a women in that role.
