What does the Bible say regarding women serving in high office or governing a nation? I read Isaiah 3:12 where it says:

"As for My people, children are their oppressors, And women rule over them. O My people! Those who lead you cause you to err, And destroy the way of your paths."

I definitely will not vote for Barack Obama. On the other hand my conscience isn't clear if voting for a woman is biblical either. Yes, there are third party candidates, but a vote for them is an indirect vote for Obama.
