In this blog, I hope to explore prevailing stereotypes about female politicians, and chart how they are working for or against Hillary. As the title of this blog suggests, I want to know: are we ready for a female president? Although it is often hard to get past Hillary’s significance as The Female Candidate in the upcoming elections, one must remember that her gender identity interesects with all of her social and political ones as well. To truly understand Hillary and the phenomenon of a female running for the office of president, I will try to also address her entire political persona: her stands on the issues, her popularity ratings, her trips and her speeches. However, in the end, since gender is the one part of her persona that Hillary cannot feasibly alter, I’d mainly like to explore the following question: will Hillary’s gender be the decisive factor in her victory or loss?
