Good point. And a women for a change. Or even a trans woman! That would be amazing! 🏳️⚧️
But it is America so this won't happen :'( We can dream.
I like Bernie though, despite his age :)
Being a woman or trans (not sure why you excluded trans men there) isn't a political accomplishment. Yes, it's bad that so many people vote against them just because of their gender, but similarly it's bad to vote for someone just because of their gender
I didn't think of trans men because they're men and America has already had only male presidents.
Of course it's not the only reason to vote for someone but considering women are just as suitable for the job in general and are 50% of the population and 100% of presidents have been men, it's really about time.
And really 99% of women will be better at the job than Trump.
