Strange, I can't help but look at this thread in a different light after your recent comments on recent threads regarding women:

To think that men and women should be treated by the same standards is intolerable.
Should women be sent to the front line of a war, to fight and die like men? Of course not.
In the worst cases a woman may be sent to prison, but it is a pretty serious thing, especially as she is also a mother.
In my opinion it is pretty sexist to say that women should be thrown in jail just the same as if they were some kind of common hoodlums, because her boyfriend mixed her up in some bad business, and she lied about cheating in a sport.

It's brought even more to light by the fact that you explicitly stated at the beginning of the thread that:

Whatever the political stances, I cannot imagine that Hillary could be elected as president. Not because she is a woman, but because she is not likeable.

Perhaps you were trying to rationalize to yourself that the reason she is not electable isn't because she's a woman, and that there must be another reason. Have you ever considered that your strongest subconscious reason for not believing she is President material is that you have a very real bias towards women, what I call the "poor woman" belief? That women inherently need male "protection", and that we should protect them from the evils of this world?
Just something to think about...
