Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) stated that “women appear to me to be more patient” and not as inclined to go to war as men in an interview broadcast on Thursday’s “Rachel Maddow Show” on MSNBC.

Reid said, “the Senate is a better place because of women. Men and women are different. I’m so impressed with how women appear to me to be more patient. They are less — inclined to do things like war…I wish I could articulate the way I really feel about how much better the Senate is because of women.”

Reid added that the country “ready” for a woman Senate Majority Leader and a woman president.
