Islamic one ... haha that's funny maybe next century

Blacks actually make up a significant part of American population. I really doubt there are more than 100 blacks living in china. I don't think there's a single asian person in Sudan, cause it isn't a very attractive country. Also there aren't many islamists in Finland. |

Hispanics are the biggest minority, and in just a couple of years they'll make up the 50% of the U.S. population.. so it's just probably a matter of years. There's a black candidate also (Democrat one) thats running for president.. so, thats like a sign. |

| True ... I think that there is a decent amount of anti-hispanic setiments in the US though ... given the fact that they are the fastest growing immigrants in our country and our still relatively new. That's why I don't really see a hispanic president any time soon. |

| You gotta admit Bill Clinton was black on the inside. Other than that, I could see jewish,black or female presidents not too far down the road. the other groups have a hell of an uphill battle though. |

- Well, I dont know about the anti-sentiment, since I live in Florida, and really Im not seen much of that here, but I can think of the other isolated states.. like the middle states or something. But, if you didnt know, hispanics is the most enroled minority group, and most educated as well when it comes to politics, they are so active and enroled, that if you think about it, Presidents HAVE to, when they run for canditates, win for the hispanic votes, which are now almost a must, if not allready. So with that in mind, I think that been that they are so active into politics, it might as well help them. But on the short term no, Im not seen a hispanic for presdient, although there's allready plenty of hispanic state governor's, so thats not as far away as in means of steping up and running for president. And since hispanics will in a few years make up about 50% of U.S. population, I dont think that the ani-hispanic sentiment will have any effect. |

There can't be a gay president because then there would be no first lady. |

if she munched carpet it would be 'first butch' or if they smoked pole then it would be 'first queen'....sorry about the non-political correctness.
