Democrats Moving Toward Defeat in November


by: cruya

Thu Feb 14, 2008 at 10:55 PM CST

The Democrats have two candidates, one African American and the other a White Woman.  And, it is my opinion; neither will win because the country is not ready to elect a black male or a woman.  I have analyzed election since 1789 and the facts speak for themselves.  For over two hundred years the American people have elected Presidents on the basis of (1)gender, (2)ancestry, (3) religion,(4) height, (5)age, (6) leadership and (7) charm.  Although there are seven factors, the first three are the most important of all.  So, I have ranked each candidate, Democrat and Republican against these three factors and see who scored 100%.  By the way, I have given weight to the first two (35% each) and religion (30%) because one President was Catholic.

                       Gender      Ancestry   Religion
           
           35%         35%          30%
                        Man       Anglo      Protestant
Sen McCain           35          35        30
Gov Huckabee       35          35        30
Sen Clinton            0           35        30
Sen Obama            35           0        30

More analysis:
15/43 Presidents the last name ended in consonant "n"  
39/43 Presidents last name ended in consonants.
 4/43 Presidents las name ended in vowel; Pres Monroe  Fillmore, Pierce, Coolidge.
 0/43 Presidents, up to now, last name ended in vowel with four letters (VP Gore)
