Really? So interesting that you'd think of her. She's not a political figure.

We can say that yes our religion has rules such as these as well. In fundamentalist evangelical sects rules are specific about women speaking out publicly esp. when it comes to political issues, no less running for office. I am not talking about mainstream evangelicals like the Evangelical Lutherans, Evangelical Quakers,Evangelical Presbyterians, I'm talking about sects like the Jehovah's Witnesses, Primitive Baptists, the Nazarenes, some Anabaptists,Pentecostals and the Holiness churches to name a few. I live in an area where there is a plentitude of fundamentalist evangelicals, many more than mainstream Xtian sects. |
My impression is that they must be a small minority of evangelicals. This after hearing Jerry Falwell Jr. ad nauseum talk about how endorsing Trump is fine because we have to render unto Caesar, etc. (And they endorsed fairly early.)

Don't you mean inexperienced, incompetent outsiders? Ms. Conway is nothing more than a campaign manager. What indication is there that she'd make a good president?

They picked Donald.
After that, I don't think your questions are still relevant.

The Falwells are Southern Baptists and although Jerry Sr. had a Southern Baptist ministry church, there is not indication the Jr. has a pulpit. He is president of Liberty U but that isn't the same as a pulpit. Most folks consider the SBC to be a mainstream Protestant and although women cannot preach in SBC churches the SBC did support Palins run for office. SBC churches are pretty autonomous as long as they fall in line with the SBC I don't think it's unrealistic to think that some of the more conservative SBC churches would not support a woman running for office. One was in the news during the last election cycle because the minister maintained that woman in his church should not be voting. Some SBC churches that do support a womans right to vote but she should vote the way her husband tells her. Family voting is very prominent in some evangelical churches, that is the father get's to decide who everyone votes for.
I think it was Forbes that had a rather indepth story about the evangelical support for our president elect.

How about Oprah Winfrey? She's not a politician but this election proves that that doesn't disqualify. She would dominate the minority vote. She is loved by everyone. I honestly think she could win if she ran.

You got it. 
Im not saying she would make an amazing president, it was really just a thought. I would have to do more research on her.
I thought Hilary Clinton was a good candidate too.
I think Ivanka Trump would be a good candidate, but she's young and raising a young family right now. She's also gorgeous and I would worry that she would have to deal with all kinds of sexism ("too pretty to take seriously" type of attitude) as she would attempt to break that glass ceiling, and politics is hard enough without the added misogyny.
Definitely NOT Sarah Palin. Argh.

Interesting (the part I snipped).
I'll see if I can find Forbes at the library, I have a vague morbid fascination with and concrete distaste for the subject.
I can understand voting for Trump, as I said, my vote for Trump would have been/was (still not saying ) a vote for Pence vs. Kaine, since I don't know if either Trump or Clinton would last a full-term, but I am disheartened by pre-convention support for Trump.
Back to the topic, sure, it'll be great to see a female president one day but Clinton is not the one who deserved to break that ceiling.

I don't know if she'd be a great president but she certainly could be elected. I wouldn't be surprised if this actually came to fruition.

Read what I said. Palin is a liability. I like her but not for the presidency.
Warren would be ideal for the Democrats. Is never vote for her, but she would be highly competitive.
Kellyanne Conway is a woman I respect deeply.

Feinstein or Boxer, both of whom I know personally.
Elizabeth Warren could be a strong Democratic candidate, but would not be a centrist.

I'm opposed to all feminism. I'm opposed to a woman president because it's incompatible with Jewish values. Serarah. Lehavdil, it's why a president must be born here, like how a ger cannot have Serarah.

Don't forget Mr. Obama while you're at it. With Kenya (no, not really but I can't resist) that makes two strikes against him.
And glad to know your husband's generous enough to let you hang here
