Why not a woman in the White House?

Clearly, men are more warlike in nature. That has been proven throughout history. Look at all the wars. Who were the proponents? All men. Look at the major atrocities that have been committed in the name of... well, whatever. All men.

The world has had enough violence. The prospect of WWIII is not one that many of us would want to consider. Nor is the prospect of all this ongoing bombing and mutilation that we see plastered all over our television screens every night. What does it achieve?

The war in Iraq was hailed a success and a victory for freedom by President George W Bush after US troops stormed the country to rid the world of weapons of mass destruction. Those weapons were never found. The information was flawed.

Years later mass murder, slaying, bombing and the loss of US troops is still a daily event.

Maybe Hillary Clinton will bring the troops home if she is elected. Maybe not. All politicians are guilty of not fulfilling their election "promises." Somehow, things mysteriously "change" after they are voted in. All of a sudden they are presented with the "true" facts. This, they then say, changes their original perspective.

In a speech delivered on 31 October, 2006, Mrs Clinton, talking on foreign policy, said: "If you look at the dangerous situations we are facing today in Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, North Korea, the proliferation of deadly weapons, the prosecution of the war on terror - you will see the same mistakes repeated over and over." Those words suggest a new approach. What that approach would be is intriguing. Certainly she is hinting that she has the answers.

If elected, Mrs Clinton will have to address, among pressing domestic issues, the following international issues:

• insurgents in Iraq and Afghanistan - their destabilizing actions thwart every peaceful initiative,
• threats coming from Iran over its nuclear "rights" - while in the same breath its own President stating that he wants to blow Israel off the map,
• ongoing nuclear weapon brinkmanship from North Korea - its President openly challenging all and sundry while testing nuclear explosions and firing the missiles capable of carrying them,
• terrorist lunatics pushing death and destruction all over the world - it is inevitable that they will eventually procure dirty bombs, biological weapons or even nuclear suitcase bombs.

Whoever wins the job, one thing is patently obvious - the agenda will be overflowing with ongoing global and internal crises of monumental proportions. While Geena Davis is able to handle these crises with great aplomb in her role as the first female US President in the series "Commander in Chief," the reality for Mrs Clinton, should she win the coveted position, will be vastly different.
