I can't agree with this article more. It is my belief that America at large *does* want to elect a female president, but the female candidate will not exude the perceived arrogance and self-importance that Hillary Clinton does. This goes to the innate likability factor that some candidates have and that some don't. We all can recall the struggles Bob Dole, Al Gore, and John Kerry had in connecting with voters. Hillary is most effective as a tenacious and persevering legislator, but she lacks the character and leadership ability to get elected president.
