This year could be a groundbreaking one in American politics: An exceptional woman is in the race for the White House, and if she wins, she will be America’s first female president.
So why does it feel like this election is all about men?
The woman atop the Democratic ticket, who has inspired an outpouring of enthusiasm not seen since the Obama era, is Black and Indian American. She is the first female vice president, the child of immigrants, a woman of immense professional success, and a stepmother who is part of a very modern family—barrier-breaker in ways large and small. And yet the focus of this election seems to be not just on men writ large, but on white men specifically.
