Of course, one could argue from original intent that clearly the writers did not intend for women to be eligible, since they weren't even allowed to vote[1] - but if the courts cared about that, we'd be able to buy machine guns at Walmart without showing ID, and the hottest argument about the 2nd Amendment would be whether field artillery was covered...<BR/><BR/>[1] There were a few exceptions to this - widows without male relatives could vote in some states. But mainly, Presidents have to be old enough and a citizen by birth, and I see no support for claiming the Constitution currently doesn't allow women to be citizens.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8544914688307073747.post-36398792993466498902008-04-09T15:24:00.000-05:002008-04-09T15:24:00.000-05:00Hillary's a female???How can that be?
