This is what I was afraid of, with both a woman and a black man on the Democratic Presidential campaign; a woman supporting Edwards admits:
"I’m a little embarrassed to be supporting a (pause) white (pause) man…(giggle)"
Yeah lady, you should instead pick one of the minority just because they are, regardless of their qualifications. At least she’s thinking, beyond liberal bias. Yes, when you support the selected ‘underdog’ just to prove how liberal you are, that’s being biased.

I’ve considered the same thing, but it’s the individual that matters, not their gender or race. I’d love to see the first female or black president be elected, if that person is the best one for the job. We desperately need the best president possible, regardless of gender, race, religion, or for that matter political party.
Yes, let’s hope the best qualified candidate wins.
