Which leaves him in the interesting position that not to ignore a candidate because she's a woman makes him a sexist pig.

I mean that, if he would ignore a male rival in this situation, he shouldn't have to treat Clinton any differently.

if Clinton were a male, Obama would just be perceived as extremely arrogant.

because she is a female, he would be perceived as a sexist pig.

If Clinton were male, she'd be Joe Lieberman, and we wouldn't be having this discussion.

firstly, her allegiance doesn't lie with Israel first

secondly, she and her husband haven't been shown to be bloodthirsty Arab haters
