Will 2008 be the year of the woman???
Do you think this country will elect a woman president in '08??? I don't know... Too bad we can't clone Margaret Thatcher and bring her over here to run for prez...
The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

Andy--
Isn't every year "the year of the woman"? It is true that the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. And women who take their role seriously have a civilizing effect on the men in their life. I think that a woman will be elected president when there's a woman who has the merit, experience and temperament to serve. That way, when she's elected, she'll be a president who just happens to be a woman. Rest assured, the American public [as opposed to a few agenda-driven individuals] will not vote for someone just because she's a woman. They'll elect her because she's the better candidate.
