Do you see a woman becoming President of World superpowers like USA and Russia in the near future?

1 Answer

Answer :

I don’t see a woman president in Russia any time soon. Vlad is dug in like a tick and Russia seems to be a bit patriarchal to begin with. China probably won’t see one either for the same reason. I could see the US getting a woman president before either of those countries. There are two roadblocks to getting this. The first is is getting a candidate that isn’t horrible. Hillary ran on no real platform. Her stance was that if you didn’t support her you were a misogynist. She also felt that anyone that supported her opponent were a basket of deplorables. You can’t be a good leader if you view half the country you want to lead that way. The second roadblock is dealing with the partisan split in this country. Right now, it really doesn’t matter who the candidate is. If the Dems have a woman candidate, the Repubs won’t support her. If the Repubs come up with a woman candidate, the Dems will oppose her. The only way to get a woman into office in this environment is if both the Repubs and the Dems had woman candidates.
