Honestly, I dont care. As long as they share ideas, politics, and ideology, I will do my best to get them there.
Technically a Puppet of Arcaniana, but in reality this is my newer and more representitive personal nation.

Freedom cannot exist without duty and neither can rights without responsibilities.

How very partisan a response that is.

Is fair enough though. Whose ideas would you most want in parliament but your own?

I'll take partisan response over calls for a gender-based state. If your "party" is your identity, I'm not going to trust you.

In regards to an all-female cabinet, ideally it should be the most qualified and specialized people in their fields, their gender should be irrelevant. But often this is not the case, so alas.

An all female cabinet is just as sexist as an all male cabinet. They'll be certain to lose the next election.

Of course Bear Stearns says something slyly misogynistic.

I don't agree with an all female/white/black/male/trans/gay/straight/disabled/able-bodied/rich/poor/whatever cabinet.
I agree with a cabinet based on who's the best person for the job, which even without imposing other barriers we don't get.
