Nah, she understands marketing. She's marketing herself as a cuddly loveable grandma to the public very effectively so she has gold plated PR, it is in private she is the businesswoman. That is the bit you don't understand, and why democrats keep losing. That selfish urge to never market themselves but always be confrontational and obnoxious with their personalities. If Hillary had been less Hillary and more Momsy, or grandmasy, she'd be called Madame President by now.

Ewwww. The problem is misogyny which you are contributing to with this kind of sexist argument. Woman candidates aren't obnoxious or confrontational, not more than men ones are at least, certainly not more than many men who are voted into office no matter how they behave, what they say or what they have done. People don't wanna vote for a woman, period. This is the same in many other countries. Accept it and move on.

Yeah, well it exists whether you like it or not. And keeping on acting like it doesn't exist while it does exist is why you keep losing. Live in the world that exists first, and maybe you'll be able to change it to match the one you wish existed. Trying to live in the world you wished existed, before it exists is a good way to keep getting Trumped.

As shown in countries who do vote for women, or have at some point, this has nothing to do with personality. But keep believing that people who vote for a woman presidential candidate who did her campaign differently. People vote for their favorite racist, sexist, homophobic, etc. male candidate right now, with some exceptions for woman racist candidates if they have no other choice. It's all over "Western" countries. That's why you keep getting Trumped.

It has nothing to do with personality. It has to do with marketing and presentation, get that through your skull and you'll elect a female leader. Just pick a candidate that reassures men and men-dependant women that they are still in charge, even when they are not, and you'll get a winner. Even hated Maggie Thatcher to get into power presented herself as the stereotypical middle class housewife. After she got into power she became a raving flesh devouring nightmare, but before, she presented herself as the UK's then middle class stereotype. Look at the failures of Liz Truss and The Maybot to conform to that stereotype for a counterexample. Look at Scotland's former FM of Nicola Sturgeon, she conformed to the Scottish (particularly West of Scotland) stereoptype of the "wee fighter". Look at every successful female candidate, they never, to get into power, went with the American Left's approach of "suck it, assholes, I'm a woman and I'm gonna be your boss", because that is a fast track to not being elected.

America has a stereotype for successful women, you have to be folksy and supportive, momsy to a fault, otherwise you become a reviled shrill harpy. And that is just for the white women. It gets even harder for black and latin women, because to get to the middle ranks of success, in America, they have to be loud and sassy yet still subservient when given an order; to take the next jump up to true success, that is a whole new pivot. Very few have managed that, maybe Oprah. Harris should've been more early Oprah but not current Oprah. Give people cars, that wouldn't have hurt.

Thatcher actually presented herself differently. Either downplayed her gender or used her image as mom to imply she could handle pressure. I could talk about other elected woman politicians but whatever for. At this point I don't know what to say if you sincerely believe voting Americans wanted to elect someone who wasn't racist, woman or man, and that they'd pick a woman over a man.
