    Should a man who is a proven liar, rapist, wife cheater and draft dodger (no names) be allowed to hold office?......OF COURSE HE SHOULD....he's a man for God's sake.

Probably not.

They are generally lazy and too emotional. And lack the intellect to handle large sums of money or problem solve.

 

There has been a few in the past in some countries. It has always been a complete disaster.

 

They should be banned.

 

 

 

 

 

You  will never handle the amounts of money Janet Holmes a Court and Gina Rinehart do, and that's just in Australia. Check out Leonie Kramer's history.

 

IMO an intelligent woman would probably scare the living daylights out of you.

Thank you for your comment CharlieKo! Actually, it's not a matter of ability and the will of the people, but a call to obedience and the Will of God for our nation. Certainly, over the span of history there have been women leaders who have been held up as being top female leaders with outstanding accomplishments; but the question remains, would the country have been better off having the favor of God on them instead of having God take a back seat and turn HIS face away from them? When you study these so-called accomplishments, they are for the most part policy advancements that are totally against the Will of God for any nation. Having a male leader with a heart that leans to the Will of God and who is willing to take a firm stand for righteousness in any country....this is a country that will prosper and enjoy the favor of God for the sake of the elect of God. If God's people continue to be apathetic and not forcefully reject a woman for the Presidency, you will see the USA fall into total chaos. When we sat on our laurels and allowed a female to be second in command, that was only the beginning of sorrows for our nation. 

To which God do you keep referring, the alleged Father of the person after whom you name your religion, or another please?

Both those women inherited their wealth from men. 
Show me one billionaire female who started with nothing and had no help from a male partner.

Thousands of men have done it.

Which goes back to the OP.

 

You sound like one of those Aussie feminist males. You are completely brainwashed into the feminist cause down there. I have never met a bunch of men more pro feminist than Australian “men”.

Really pathetic and setting a terrible standard for the rest of the western world.

 

You should be ashamed of yourself.

This is a question that the entire world is afraid to ask in this day and age of women's rights and gender equality; but in my estimation, it is the "elephant in the room" so far as this upcoming election is concerned. I am a Christian, and in the Christian ethos a woman would not be allowed to hold that office. The Holy Scriptures make it perfectly clear that there is a line of authority in God's Kingdom, and a woman is not to have spiritual authority over a man. The Head of the woman is the man, and the Head of man is Jesus Christ. This goes for marriage and the household and even in the church where women are not to hold the position of Deacon or Pastor and having spiritual authority over the men. I simply cannot imagine that God would bless a woman and her nation when the population goes against the Laws of God and elects a woman as President. HE will only work within His own framework of authority. We all know intuitively that having a woman as Commander in Chief is just not natural, and I firmly believe that a nation will never be blessed when a woman is in charge.

 

If you follow politics at all, you will see that our House and Senate are filled with women who are at odds with everything that is good and Godly for our country. They simply don't have the wisdom that is required to fulfill the calling to these higher offices. Even King Soloman, the richest and wisest man in his time, said that in all his dealings he never met a wise woman. The only thing that could be worse than having a woman as the leader of any nation would be to have a boy king, and historically that has been proven time and time again. I am deeply concerned for the direction that our country is headed, and I am totally convinced that if a woman is elected as President of the USA, then we will have done a grave injustice to ourselves.

 

I am certain that I will receive tremendous pushback on this which only goes to show how we have been deceived by the rise of feminism over the past decades. There was a time in history when the Christian churches even preached on this topic from the pulpits of America, and it would have been unheard of to elect a woman as President. Sadly, in this age even the churches have been intimidated by the secular culture and are deathly afraid of being called out and cancelled for standing firm on this topic. Preachers are all but silent on the matter.....being afraid of losing their positions and having their church's non-profit status removed by the government and even being closed down for going against the culture and propagating so-called hate speech and intolerance. God's Word is the same yesterday, today and forever more, and HE is unchanging. For me, this is not a matter of opinion, but it's a question of obedience to God. As for me and my house, we will always serve the Lord and put Him and HIS WORD first in all of our decisions. 

 

In support of my position, I offer for your consumption an article that will explain my point further and offer Scripture references to support my claim.

Religion is destroying the Planet, as long as people like you are coming up with such a nonsense there is no hope for a peaceful life. Everybody can believe what he wants, but any kind of Religion must be banned from to interfere someones else life.

If you’re referring to the current situation and the dem elites choice,  No.
 

A woman  that was chosen by elites from the dem party as opposed to the democratic primary process,who are obsessed with DEI culture and checking boxes that pertain to Identity politics.

 

A woman who was the most liberal out

 of all dem senators , when she held office.

 

 A woman who uses identity politics to attract voters while using accents .

 

A woman , who was second in charge of the country that oversees illegal migration for 3- 1/2 years , resulting in historical proportions , and decides to flip flop

her extreme left positions to convince 

moderate voters that she’s  authentic choice for all .


A woman who has no knowledge of 

foreign or economic affairs!

 

I can think of more woman that are more deserving.

 

Fact of the matter is she will go where no leftest as President has ever gone , extreme left !

Do I have proof of this , her entire political life ,revolves around being 

a social justice activist! Her speeches , her emboldened BLM stance and support of Woke Culture.

 

 

 

 

Do you reckon she'd be able to construct a proper paragragh though?

If God has an issue with this, He's free to write a formal letter to the Federal Election Commission asking for them to look into the matter.

 

If the FEC does not receive a formal letter from God, then I guess there's nothing to be done.

Because I haven’t fallen victim to the woke PC brigade feminist myths. 

 

women are better at some things than men such as, ah, er, I can’t think of any off the top of my head, but I am sure there is something. 
 

If you want to “believe in equality” you are entitled to that.

 

Next you will be on about the “pay gap” and why it is “unfair”.

 

There are more women than men voters, but the women keep voting us in. Why is that?

Im not feminist. Im not sure you actually believe the things you post it seems you just want to pick fights. No use debating someone who disagrees with everything

Not at all a truly Christian response, is it? 

 

Why not support everyone in such worthy desires? 

The obvious answer is "of course, just not THIS woman".  Plenty of smart and savvy ladies in politics in the US, in both parties, that could be considered presidential material. Hell, even Hillary Clinton, with whom I disagree on just about everything, would have been a better president than Kamala. Hillary is at least smart, sharp, and has experience in the world.
