wow, that's really interesting. I haven't looked at anyone else's answers yet so here's what i think:

a female
I think that a female will most likely get the nomination (i'm guessing democrat) in the next 10-15 years. The presidency?? maybe a few years after that

someone from an ethnic minority
I think that if Colin Powell had run a few years ago he would have definitely won. I think that this country is ready for a leader in an ethnic minority

a non-Christian
that depends on the religion. i think that an islamic person would be less likely to win the presidency than most others just because of how our country reacted to 9/11. I think that as long as the canidate didn't make his/her religion an issue it wouldn't be a problem.

a homosexual person
This is a lot less likely to occur, especially if the canidate is open about his/her sexuality. Although it seems to be the minority now there are still a lot of people who look down on those who are homosexual.

someone who is (relatively)poor
this will not happen for a long time. campaigns need money and people are less likely to support a poorer person jsut because they won't have as much money to work with of their own. a lot of canidates use their own resources now.

and it will go
1. jewish
2. ethnic minority
3. female
4. poorer person
5. homosexual
6. other nonchristian religious faith
