Women have been working towards making important contributions in the running of the country since the early 1900s and in the centuries before.

I see very few of any gender in elected office that I would deem qualified, intelligent, or ingenious. Civil service is a waste of good talent

CPT Jack Durish. My short stints in state and federal employment revealed this to me. Once slackers get tenured, anyone new and with substance coming in is doomed.

I think the military has done a better job than the political scene at finding and promoting competent women. I am generally unimpressed with both the men and women who are in politics in this country

Lt Col Charlie Brown I very much agree on this point. I can see a unique difference between those who have served and those who have money or popularity. Those who have served have "peeked" in on what sacrifice and commitment really mean. So as civilians many do not succeed because idiots are in a position to sabotage those who have served before we get well positioned.

When it comes to government positions, I feel as though BOTH genders have a bad track history of being unqualified, idiotic, and self serving.

MSG (Join to see) this is also, very true. However, I find it amazing the classic, stylish, intelligent women who have been attempting to break the barriers that disregarded their intelligence because of gender.

PO3 Phyllis Maynard - Is it because of gender or is it because they are being drowned out by the loud, vocal idiots that end up getting voted into office?

MSG (Join to see), yes this ALSO. Loud idiots have a way of distorting the true objectives and making the most qualified person disappear in the subjufuge.
