For me personally, this is just one more reason to say no to Mrs. Clinton in regards to the role of POTUS. What's sad is it is looking like I will be forced to choose between either her or Mr. trump, and when all is said and done I think BOTH would put our Country in serious jeopardy.
I know my next comments are going to cause some people to yell "discriminatory pig", or "Misogynist". But the fact is, standing up and saying you guarantee you will appoint at least half of a faculty as women (or men) is pure and utter discrimination. You need to appoint them based on qualifications and experience; not because of what they have or don't have between their legs.
Now, I am not saying there are not enough qualified women; I, myself, don't know. I DO know that I would not approve of most of the men that are in office now, based on their past actions or inactions. All I am saying is yuo can not say "at least half will be women" or "half will be men". You have to vette each and every single one of them before making a choice; and if that means you end up with one side heavier than the other, then guess what? You know you got the best choices available.

Daniel, no one should give you a hard time or mark you down here for asking a question, however let me try and help you understand the difference between the two people that you mentioned along with the talking points that you will see. Hillary has sold out OUR (not her) country for political influence. Depending on your MOS, and if you hold a security clearance, you would know that keeping classified information on your personal computer would put you behind bars. Selling Uranium to Russia, Benghazi, and the list goes on of issues that should have put her away. If her party didn't control the DOJ she would be behind bars. To even consider her as a possible Commander in Chief scares the hell out of me.
Many people don't like Trump, however here are some of his positions and were the other Candidates stand. Trump want to send all illegal aliens home, and allow them to file the proper documentation to come back legally. Cruz want's to send them all home with no chance of returning because they already broke the law by coming here illegally. The rest don't believe that they should be considered illegal, because they don't believe in upholding any law that doesn't benefit them. Trump wan'ts to lower corporate taxes, and place tariffs on imported goods on a level equal to that countries tax on our goods. Not only is this a fair approach, but will make manufacturing here in America affordable once again and bring jobs back.
Don't listen to the noise of the protester and the media, but rather research and study the Candidates. While they are not giving you their resume, you can find all the information needed to make a sound judgement. Your vote is more then a vote, it is your approval of the person that you are willing to hire as the next President and Commander in Chief. The fact that we may not see eye to eye, but can still discuss the topics, is a testament to the greatness of our country and the freedoms that we have because of soldiers like you.

I can not disagree with anything you have said here (in fact I have been saying a lot of the same things in regards to Ms. Clinton, especially in regards to National Security). However, you are trying to whitewash the fence for Mr. trump by not looking at what's wrong with him:
* All Muslims to be either deported or registered, regardless of citizenship
- He wants to reenact what we did to the Japanese back during WWII
* Trump wants to not only lower corporate taxes, but also taxes on the wealthy, and he
wants to RAISE taxes against the middle class and poor.
* Mr. Trump's business plans ALL have the intention to file bankruptcy. I have heard him say this myself; that he thinks it is a good plan of business to plan for filing bankruptcy. And I do not mean as a contingency plan in case something goes wrong, but as part of the actual business plan itself.
- Mr. Trump has stated he intends to run the country like a business. What do you think will happen when he "files bankruptcy" on our debts to China, Russia, and everywhere else?
Those are just a few of the things I have major issues with. If it truly does come down to Mr. Trump and Ms. Clinton, I honestly do not know who I will vote for because by Oklahoma law I can only vote for the two primary winners and one third party (I forget the third party as it JUST got approved this year)

Daniel, If you do some fact checking you will see that Trump did not say that he wanted to deport all of the Muslims or put them all in a camp. What he said was that all of the hundreds of thousands of refugees that Obama is bringing in from Syria have to be sent back until they can be properly vetted. Since Trump said this, you may have seen all of the troubles that have been going on in other parts of the world because of these refuges. He wasn't including all of the Muslims that live here, but this was blown out of proportion and that lead to him being called a racist. He has shown an unwavering position on boarder security.
As a business man and the business of buying failing companies and real estate, it would be proper to for every potential out come. The corporation that he chairs has filed bankruptcy I believe 4 times, while some may not care for this, it is not illegal and many businesses do this (GM). When you look at the chances that he would file bankruptcy for our country, there is not a chance of that. When you consider what happened when Greece was having problems, our country would cause a global financial collapse.
I will have to go back and double check the tax issues to see if there has been a change in his position, but initially all of the republicans were marching the same line about lowering all taxes. Yes the wealthy would see the biggest savings because they make the most and pay the most. Here is a couple of other items that I believe play in Trumps favor that you may want to consider. 1) He is self funding his campaign so far and does not want to be beholden to anyone except the American people. 2) Everyone knows that both parties are corrupted and that is why nothing gets done in Washington that has reduced the deficit or really improved quality of life for everyone. If both parties are afraid of him cleaning house with all new people, that says a lot. I, being an optimist have to see this as a good thing.
At this point we are only speculating that these two individuals will be running, it could be Ted and Bernie come November. What every the choices are, block out the noise of the media and research the candidates so that you can make the best selection for the one who best matches your criteria.

How silly of us. All these decades, we demanded talent, experience, qualifications. Think of all the trouble we could have saved to select key members of an Administration simply by checking to see if they had breasts. BTW, I wonder who would get that job and if they would be paid or have to pay to have it.

I happen to agree with you. Pre-selecting based on gender is wrong on so many levels and its NOTHING more than Political Pandering for votes. That's because she is a useless witch that has to pander to get even the women's vote.
