Black men got the vote before women and one of the arguments against giving them the vote is "we'd have to give women the vote". I think you're underestimating the vagina factor.

So your basic argument is that the country is more sexist than it is racist? I would strongly disagree.

It depends. I think people consider women less competent and less "strong" and more "emotion driven", but consider black men more antisocial. If you look at treatment of law enforcement officers by their co-workers I think you'll find more sexism than racism. If you look at treatment of civilians by law officers I think you'll find them more racist. It depends on the circumstance. I don't think the people who prefered the idea of black men voting to women voting were necessarily more sexist than racist. They merely were on the issue of voting. Voting is basically an issue of political descision making, so it relates to becoming president as well.
