Men - All You Need Is Potential

Yesterday I watched To The Contrary which I had taped from last Sunday. One of the panelists, Patricia Sosa, said the following (I'm paraphrasing):

I am extremely frustrated because women are judged on our performance and men are judged on potential. We have a woman who played by the rules and has done her homework ... yet she's not good enough because he's potentially greater.

Also watched Bill Maher's Realtime where he said that studies show 6% of the population will not vote for a black man but even more, 12%, will not vote for a woman. No surprise there.
