I think crying has to be taken in context. A disabled veteran was telling his story. Had she not shown emotions people would have jumped into say she does not care for veterans or is too stoic, or lacks respect towards the armed forces.

As a woman damned if you cry, damned if you don't.

A good leader is sensitive, empathic and sympathetic. They are compassionate about what people feel, think and do. They understand emotions and express them. Being emotional does not mean the person is not a good leader.However, a person should be in control of their emotions. Their decisions should be balanced and a combination of rational thought and emotional feeling. They should not let emotions sway them irrationally.

A person who is swung by emotions is unstable. A person who is not emotional cannot connect with people.

Clintons... Vinu not all women.. Tongue but I agree at the bold statement you made. Smile

FROM CNN's Jack Cafferty:

Hillary Clinton is promising that in her White House there wouldn't be any new scandals involving her husband, former President Bill Clinton. Confused

She was asked in an interview how people can be certain that a new personal or business scandal won't erupt that Republicans could use to blow her agenda and her administration out of the water.

Clinton replied: "You know, I just can assure this reader that that is not going to happen. You know, none of us can predict the future, no matter who we are and what we're running for, but I'm very confident that that will not happen."

History suggests otherwise. Bill Clinton's eight years in the White House were plagued by scandals – from Whitewater to Gennifer Flowers, to Monica Lewinsky to his impeachment. http://caffertyfile.blogs.cnn.com/

being able to feel the emotions is a good thing, as distinct from always wearing them on your sleeve. former lets you develop empathy/ connection with others you are trying to lead, including letting you know whether display of the latter is a winning strategy. Wink

best of course if that feel for the moment comes naturally Smile

also, there are a range of emotions, from anger to pride to hurt. dont know why it only has to be rona-dhona. Tongue

is that because so many folks are such an emotional lot that they are immune to the more subtle versions? unless it's accompanied by a lot of kekta-type melodrama? Wink
