I'm confused by this response (not the OP). Do you think that they were saying Clinton's being a woman would make her a worse president? I took it to mean that there are a decent-sized group of Americans who do believe that (probably not including the OP), and as a result nothing she could have done would have won her those votes. I don't know how many people voted against Clinton because she's a woman, but I guarantee you it's not 0. As a result, it needs to be talked about. While it'd be a better world if people didn't focus on such irrelevancies, the fact that some do means we can't act like it's non-existant.

It's a great point you make. Because we're not allowed to think like that, we can't talk about it. However, we do base our decisions on it. So here we are. Still not allowed to mention the elephant in the room. PC gone mad.

On the other hand I wonder how many people voted for Clinton because she was a woman, I would wager that's not 0 as well. Of course, I don't know whether the yea-woman outweighed the nay-woman.
