Hillary Clinton is Done: part 3

[cullennz]

Grow up and learn a few of the basics of US politics. Why do you expect people to continue to educate you? Heard of google?

No skin off my nose but you might want to Google madam and prostitution

 

[cullennz]

Mrs might be better

I think everyone knew that was what you were alluding to, but there is precedent. "Madam Speaker" has been used both in the US and the UK, as opposed to "Mister Speaker".

Given the use of "Mister President", there is little doubt that the formal address will be "Madam President"

Cool.

Just thought the opposite was Mrs or Ms

Never mind

I'll sachet away from this interaction

To 1950s conservatives, maybe. Mrs. has been out of favor(and favour) for more than two generations, now.

Or, you could just, like, Google "Madam President".

So mister must be a bit sexist

No, Mrs implies posession and a secondary status.
When a man gets married does he get given a new title that conveys his married status?

You mean "sashay".

No.

But they tend not to called a brothel owner

 

[Matthew Best]

No.

Nobody has been called a brothel owner.

 

[jimbob]

It is a derail, but you are getting the cause and effects confused, brothel owners are called Madames because of the other history, not the other way round.

sachet away

 

[cullennz]

Lady prez sounds cool.

Ms is generic

 

[Matthew Best]

Not really. You can sashay any which way you like.

You can't sachet anywhere - it's not a verb.

You can.

You just leave a pleasant scent while doing it

It actually isn't

 

[jimbob]

I agree that debating the correct form of address for the first female POTUS is probably more useful than debating how Trump could win.

Foolish, foolish post.

If you are going to contribute to this thread, learn a few basics first.

 

[Andy_Ross]

Ma'am is a contraction of Madam and it is used as a form of address for the Queen and officers of superior rank in the armed forces and police.

 

[The Big Dog]

She is pragmatic, and, like Obama has learned the lesson that it's better to achieve something rather than aim for perfection and get nothing - her attempt at healthcare reform under the first Clinton presidency taught her that.
.

Is "pragmatic" another word for liar?

Her private speeches show that she is a hard righty and pimp for wall street.

Delusion....
