For once, you and I agree, I would in fact love to see a female president - but NOT the one currently gunning for the job.
We have some very capable female politicians in this country, in several parties (including a few in the ANC) whom I would love to see take that office. Of course Thuli Madonsela would have the whole country cheering her - but sadly has already expressly stated that she has no intention to enter politics but there are some great women parliamentarians within the ruling party that have been making headlines by standing on principle and taking their oaths of office more seriously than party loyalty. I could definitely be happy to cheer the swearing in of president Khoza !
