Will She Win and If Not

Will She Win and If Not



I was embarrassed to see Mr. Anderson Cooper of CNN get embarrassed on his interview with Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

It was more embarrassing to see Mr. Cooper remain embarrassed after the interview.

Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton's being a future President of the U.S. is, of course, one possibility at present.

What I am afraid is that if Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton is defeated in the coming presidential election, dignity of America might be influenced, though partly, negatively.

Terrorists hiding in the Islamic world might further lose respect to their archrival, the U.S., if an ex-First Lady looses her face in real politics.

Ms. Maria Sharapova was recently defeated by Ms. Serena Williams in Australia, though Maria, an inhabitant in the U.S., has kept her ranking, No.1 among female tennis players in the world.

Maria is now in Tokyo, preparing herself for matches including one against, probably, Ms. Martina Hingis.

Maria has had many interviews by Japanese media who love her popularity in Japan.

Though she hinted, in an interview, that she thought she was more matured than other 19 years old girls due to her endeavor to be a top athlete, she carries a kind of a felling idyllic.

Mr. Michael Moore once enthusiastically wrote that he wished Ms. Oprah Winfrey to run for a U.S. Presidential election.

The only billionaire African American lady, Ms. Winfrey, is said however to have gone to South Africa to establish a girls' school.

Has he had an interview with her; or has she had ever an interview with him?

An autocracy, including the USSR, seldom allows women to lead the society, since armed forces are a core of the establishment.

But, will the fact that a lady can be the president of a nation or a billionaire appeal to Muslims?

However, a system in which young ladies can enjoy sports freely must appeal to young Muslims.

I mean the background that allows for a female President in the U.S. might be more profound than ordinary Democrats and Republicans domestically consider.

In Japan, the issue of admitting a female Emperor (or an Empress on a throne) has been a social issue for some time, though we had actually some in the long imperial history lasting almost 2000 years.

In this context, the position of the Pope in Rome might be the last challenge for ladies.
