Just A Thought

Now we know who's the next U.S. president. Not like I've been keeping tabs of all the electoral stuffz. But I was kinda rooting for Sarah Palin ever since Hillary Clinton became sucha letdown. YES! I was hoping a woman would come in power, irregardless of their capabilities. It doesn't make a difference anyway. Coz those who comes into power eventually screws everybody up. It's like the bedrock upon which the political system was formed, and that's how it's been, then and now. For every leader who comes into power, somebody will actually have to suffer some unpredictable consequances. It's a natural political cycle. No leaders can please or appease everyone. It's highly impossible. Plus no leaders can be so perfect either. Which is why, I thought that it doesn't matter who has the better portfolio. As long as a woman is in the running, I'm all supportive. As it turns out, not all women have the mentality that "Because you are a woman so I shall vote for you". I guess it really reflects the amount of level headed-ness women posseses now and that they will not blindly give in to 'sisterhood pride', without weighing the pros and cons of the possible circumstances in the long run. Having the capacity and credibility to make things better actually matters. The colour of your skin or your gender does not exactly draws boundaries either. Still, it would have been really good to have a woman in such a powerful position. Next election perhaps?
