Summary:
Hillary Clinton evokes extreme and varied emotions among voters in a way no other candidate in recent memory has. But why? This book delves into the nuances of our complicated feelings about one of America's most powerful women politicians ever. In this timely collection, writers of all ages, walks of life, and political affiliations write about Clinton, while editor Joanne Cronrath Bamberger provides the narrative framework through which to view the history that's led us to this moment in time--the moment when voters must decide whether they can forgive Hillary Clinton for not being the perfect candidate or the perfect woman and finally elect our first woman president.
