"As you can imagine I'm disappointed as anything that I was not selected to be the presidential running mate. And I find it continually appalling that it would be a radical thing to have a woman on the ticket"

About this Quote

This quote by Kate Clinton talks to the lack of progress in gender equality in the United States. In spite of the reality that women comprise more than half of the population, they are still underrepresented in politics. Clinton reveals her dissatisfaction that she was not selected to be the governmental running mate, and her frustration that it would be considered a radical thing to have a woman on the ticket. This quote highlights the requirement for more women in politics, and the significance of having a diverse representation in federal government. It also functions as a tip that gender equality is still far from being attained, which there is still much work to be done in order to guarantee that ladies are given the very same opportunities as males.
