Do you think a woman or minority will ever be able to win the presidency going forward?

[acri1]

Do you think a woman or minority is capable of winning the presidency again? And will it happen in our lifetime? Or does any party that wants to win have to run a white guy?

On one hand, we had Obama, but he was pretty much a once-in-a-lifetime candidate. And even all these years later the backlash against having a black president is still as strong as ever. And of course we've had two MUCH more qualified women lose to DJT. And with current social environment it's pretty easy to label anyone who isn't a white guy with "DEI" accusations.

Of course, this is assuming we even have elections since the Supreme Court pretty much made Trump king.

Still, who knows what'll be going on in another four years, and the social environment can change. Thoughts on this?

A minority, yes

A woman, no

If two women can’t beat one of the worst Presidential candidates of our lifetime, it’s probably not happening

 

[BaggerofTea]

We literally just had Barack, what a fukking insult to think that a black MAN can't win again.

Especially when majority of Americans only care if you are charismatic or not


A charismatic black man can win president of the universe if given the chance.



Even saying a woman can't win is silly.


Kamala was meh on the charisma scale.


Hillary had too much damage from right wing attacks over the years.


A charismatic tall ex military woman who is conventionally attractive and mentally tough will beat most men she is running against.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Unless it’s a universally loved celebrity then probably not

 

[King Poetic]

A woman no

And the democrats need to cut that shyt

White men and especially the 60% of the poor and 10% of the rich and Latino men are not voting for a woman

They’ll vote for another mulatto in office first and probably Jose and juan

Its bound to happen. Women and non-whites have been elected as US Senators and Governors, and been nominated/confirmed as Supreme Court justices. If that's happened and continues to happen at the top of those branches of govt., only logical that it will happen for the Executive branch.

Right set of circumstances, right candidate, it could happen.

I think the right minority/female candidate can still win. also, I always say the broader cultural War matters. we spend a lot of time talking about the lgbtq/ trans stuff but feminism has become very toxic too. A woman who sets herself apart from that has a shot IMO.

 

[#BOTHSIDES]

Yes.

We have to admit that the Dems have run terrible candidates and non charismatic candidates since Obama…

i think we’ll see an Indian, a Hispanic, and possibly another blk president. The only blk guy who could be the potential president that I know of is Wes Moore of Maryland.

 

[Still Benefited]

Thecoli liberal loyalist exact words for 2028 were "Give us a white man in the next election!"

So not even black Democrats want a woman,letalong a black person. This is how desperate they are to regain the status quo and get back on the treadmill of white supremacy. They dont mind the treadmill,just not these damn speeds

Also, the definition of "minority" will change in a few decades when whites will no longer be the numerical majority.
The fear of that inevitable day is what fuels MAGA.

 

[King Poetic]

The democrats thats up in the senate and house doesn’t realize , that people actually live in other places besides DC, LA, NYC, Chicago and other big blue cities

The biggest votes come from those smaller towns/cities

And u have to sell them people who are usually uneducated and poor on coal mining, manufacturing, steel, auto industry jobs even though we know 90% of that shyt is not returning, u have to sell those people on that

That’s what trump did just to get in office and he said fukk them once he got in

 

[ItsPeople]

Run 2 females or breh candidates against each other, simple

 

[3rdWorld]

Not a female..but another Black man would take it.
