1. Theodore Roosevelt- Pres of USA (1902-1909) This guy was a progressive, not a bigot, and a honest man. He was one of the best presidents, and I plan to model my political career after his.

2. William Wallace- Scottish freedom fighter.

3. Hironobu Sakagouchi- FF producer, need I say more?

I "admire" no one, i dont see the point of looking up to someone and shaping yourself after them... you should be your own person and let no one influence your personality

Ahhhhh Colin Powell.....As a Republican I must say that I wish he was president. He'd win any election but hes too far off the party line to ever win the Republican primary.

Actually, most people here also agree that Colin Powell needs to be the Pres.

There have been many inspiring women who you men folk obviously fail to recognize since none of you listed any darned vaginas. Molly Pitcher, Phillis Wheatly, Joan of Arc, Clara Barton, Sally Ride... it goes on and on.

Molly Pitcher, compared to the 500,000 some odd men who died in the civil war she didn't do much.

Phillis Wheatly? Had to look that one up, but she doesn'y impress me as she was merely the first women to do something thats not a legitimate claim to fame.

Joan of Arc, she lead a war to keep the French monarchy in place and keeping the British from implementing any of their radical concepts about the rights of men, real hero.

I'll give you Clara Barton she was fine.

Sally Ride also was merely the first woman to do something which as I said isn't a valid claim to fame.

YOU INGRATES. You all should include YO MOMMAS since they've taken care of you your entire lives and cleaned your room and wiped your ass, not to mention BORE YOU from their wombs.

My mother is a single parent so she has done what you said in addition to working to put food on the table. I am very grateful but that doesn't mean that I shall retract my statement that women need to start making some history. You have equal status now use it.

He's too smart. He knows that he'll only be ripped to shreds and attacked from every corner if he steps into that ring. If Mother Theresa were around and ran for president, they'd find some way to slander even her.

Hes untouchable, but as I said he would sadly never win the Republican primary. As long as he hasn't participated in any My Lai massacres or anything he could win easy, if he got the nomination.

And as much as everyone would like to believe there are equal rights now as there are supposed to be by law, there will always be inequalities between the treatment of the sexes. There are still companies where women are expected to be okay with getting paid less than men for doing the same job. There are still less women going to college than men. In fact, any woman that achieves something great should be honored especially because there is still a lot of discouragement due merely to her gender.

and on the other side of the spectrum, there are situations where an equally competent man gets beaten out of a job by a woman because the company needs to fill a quota...

Being that fat white men are very common, they are no minority. And I'm sure many obnoxious people will eventually speak out and insult your obesity! SOME DAY INDEED.

That was supposed to be a joke but since you decided to attempt and argue with me I shall defend my point.

Yes I suppose fat white men are far more common than say, I don't know women. You do make up 51% of the population of the earth but I suppose that makes you more of a minority than the noble fat cacausian.

You also fail to realize that said obnoxious people are allowed to prosper because of a sick flaw in society. One cannot mock some one for their race, sex, religion, sexual orientation, ect. but fat is free fucking game. It is the last politically correct form of bigotry.

What makes women a minority is the lack of power rather than the quantity. And many prosperous men are fat. Not too many people have the gumption to call a rich man fat anyway.

Women arent in power, and it should stay that way. If we had a woman president all she'd ever do would be having babies and cooking, and we'd have a war every month... on the exact same week...
