Who are the hottest moderate, moderate-conservative, libertarian, and conservative women of black African descent? Well, after several days of voting last week, the readers have spoken!
1. Harris Faulkner, 46 - 2012 HOTTEST BOOKERISTA FEMALE
REPEAT WINNER
Center-right journalist | Fox News Channel
Birthplace: Ft. McPherson Army Base, GA, USA | Nationality: American |
Residence: metro New York City, USA
Position on 2011 list: 1
Hotness factor: Booker Rising's readers clearly love Harris
Faulkner, as she received more than double the votes of the runner up. This Southern beauty possesses a leggy and buxom build,
intriguing eyes, a nice smile, a husky voice, and bubbly personality.
Her fans have launched a "Harris Is A Hottie" fan group, online literotica (fantasy stories) about ol' girl, and YouTube videos admiring her legs and walk. Unfortunately for y'all, Ms. Faulkner is married (her husband is media executive and former reporter Tony Berlin) with two daughters.
However, she's not just a pretty face but is also a six-time Emmy winner
for her journalism. Born into a military family just outside Atlanta in
1965 (her father was an Army aviator), Ms. Faulkner was partly raised
in Stuttgart, Germany. A graduate of the University of California at
Santa Barbara, Ms. Faulkner has been an accountant and a freelance
business writer for LA Weekly. Her broadcast journalism career
has taken her to Los Angeles; Greenville, N.C.; Kansas City (anchorwoman
work); and the Twin Cities (anchorwoman work). Ms. Faulkner was a
correspondent for the 2005 revival of "A Current Affair" television
show, before joining the Fox News Channel the same year. She currently
anchors "Fox Report Weekend", and is also a breaking news reporter. In her spare time, she contributes to charitable causes related to military families, churches, and humanitarian relief.

her cable TV appearances. She also advances issues related to

Birthplace: Lusaka, Zambia | Nationality: Zambian/British | Residence: metro London, England
Position on 2010 list: 3

Oxford-trained economist and best-selling author who voices opposition
to government foreign aid to Africa, as well as Western decline (The Daily Beast calls her the "Siren Of The Financial Meltdown")

public events).

Lieutenant governor; conservative Republican | State Of Florida

Known for: being Florida's first black lieutenant governor, and
also America's second black female lieutenant governor. A U.S. Navy
veteran of 20 years, Lt. Gov. previously served in the Florida House
of Representatives. I think my readers like the fact that the
Caribbean-born beauty can talk politics....and pistol-whip the hell out
of any home invader (she earned an Expert Pistol Medal back in her Navy
days).
