You mean financing the Federal government. While an odd thought to most people, the Federal Government is NOT "the country". While I'm at it, regardless of everyone saying it, the President does not "run the country". Generally, they ruin it.
But carrying your question to the next logical point, can women VOTE for the pastor? As to what I think, no, they cannot serve on a search committee nor vote for a pastor. They should spend their time making sandwiches for the men who do serve on the committee and vote.
