How many female Republicans might run for president this go round? How many are even in the news?

I don't apply that to everyone, just this particle case since it's long pattern of behavior. I guess you missed that in lurker mode. > Bigotry has nothing to do > with it.

You spun the conversation from your bias and claimed I was spinning. It comes down to she believes in a creator so she's too stupid to be President.
