Summary
Why haven't we had a female president of the United States? The easy answer is sexism. The real answer is not so simple. Vitali examines how America determines who is presidential, and how we approach candidates in terms of likeability, trustworthiness, and valuation of their experience. She dives into the media's part to play in how female candidates versus male candidates are covered. And she provides a sweeping look at the realities of American presidential politics.
