Title: Double standard - why do Clintons get 16 years in the White House?
Post by: Matthew on July 24, 2016, 01:35:02 PM
In America, there is an Amendment to the Constitution which states that a President can only serve 2 terms.

But that Amendment didn't envision the current state of "gender equality" where women can feasibly become president.

So Hillary was in the White House for 8 years already, but she qualifies to become president now? In theory, she could be re-elected in 2020 and the Clinton couple or "team" could get a total of 16 years in power. I will pass over the consideration that their marriage is purely one of convenience and political power.

If she is "as good as a man", then she was already in power for 8 years. What, are you suggesting women only take care of "keeping house" while her husband Bill does all the important stuff?

If she is NOT "as good as a man", then why are we even considering her candidacy for President of the United States?
