My disgust with the Republican party, of which I am a member, grew exponentially. The meager, polite support shown univer­ sally across the party was once again muted by the prevailing inability to support whole­ heartedly a female candidate for such an executive position. Republican male domi­ nance had once again stifled the powerful, passionate voice of quite arguably one of the most well-qualified presidential candidates of the race, regardless of gender. This evi­ de11ced the party's distaste with the thought of being represented and led by a female. The American people, by failing to afford enough support to Dole, passively submitted to the Republican weariness of female executive leadership. Though we all saw the multitude of gifts with which Dole was bestowed, few in the end gave recognition to their inner voic~ in support and instead preferred to join in the rhetoric of question­ ing a female's actual presidential capabilities.
