of the united states. i just wonder what kind of question that is. i mean are they supposed to say i'm not comfortable with that? i mean -- >> exactly. >> this is a setup question perry. what are you supposed to say, no, i'm a man of yesterday. i don't like women and i don't want them in the white house. who is going to say that? go ahead. say that. it's like one of the questions do you want a black president, hispanic president, female president? some people in the electorate aren't for that but they won't say that in a poll but i think we'll get a good sense of how the electorate and for that matter the media views female candidates, carly fiorina on the republican side and hillary clinton. hopefully we'll have less articles about their clothing and appearance than in 2008. that's what i'm hoping for myself. >> you know in 2008 the "los angeles times" tried to do a poll to get at that question without saying would you vote for a woman president or is the country ready for a woman president because everybody is going to say yes, and they basically asked something like, you know do you think your neighbor would vote for a woman or an african-american?
