Hillary Clinton Or Barak Oabma: Race Defeats Misogyny

WILL Hillary Clinton (white woman) beat Barack Obama (black man) to be be the Democrat Party’s official Presidential candidate? Notes the LA Times:

A CNN poll today shows that 72% of whites and 61% of blacks believe the country is ready for a black president. That’s up from 65% and 54%, respectively, two years ago. (Both polls have a margin of error of +/-4.5%.)

But asked if the country is ready for a female president, blacks and whites both are in agreement; they’re less sure — only 63% of both whites and blacks answer yes. That’s up slightly (from 58%) for whites but down among blacks from 67% since December, 2006.

Interestingly, men and women remain in agreement on this issue, too. In 2006, 60% of both genders said yes and this time it’s 65% female and 64% male.

Do Amerians fear women?
