I think in the current state of the world, not a chance in hell. Would I however vote for a muslim candidate? Yes, if I thought they were the best man/women for the job. Also I could not vote for any deeply religious conservative no matter what religion they were.
I wouldn't vote for anyone that is a professional politician. No matter who or what they believed in. Now if a plumber, cook, or barmaid would run , I'd vote for them more than likely but I still would be very cautious about them as well. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Now? No. The end. Ask again in 50 years... (assuming that in these 5 decades we already had a female and a minority president)
At the current rate of conception, in less than fifty years muslims will be able to out vote "westerners". Then they would have to beat the mexicans.
No they wouldn't right now, but it's not forbidden. They could certainly try. Giving people a chance is all that really qualifies as "egalitarian", the political reality is a different matter entirely.
Sure - why not? As long as we have someone in office who's competent and has America's interests at heart.
I would vote for a Christian president. Islam is exactly equally as retarded as Christianity, so yes.
Prior to 9/11, sure. No prob. But not right now. I mean, would we have elected a Japanese president in WW2? Of course not. But, on the other hand, the fact that Baraq Husain Obama is doing so well in the polls suggests maybe we would. I know he's not Muslim, but if Americans really hated Muslims, he'd be close enough.

Not in the current atmosphere, no. But like someone earlier said, 50 years done the line? I wouldn't be too surprised.
You mean some are still alive? You better hurry, SAM. It's full blown genocide over there. *sarcasm*Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
So do I. America hasn't had one terrorist attack since the war began. The longest period in 30 years.
It is like everything else in our politics, it is a matter of timing. There was a time when a person of African heritage could never realistically dream of becoming president and there was a time when a woman could not dream of becoming president. And there was a time when a Catholic could not dream of becoming president. We have had a Catholic president and are likely to get a president of African heritage this time a round.
