We'll Never Know

Hillary Clinton has repeatedly called for people to not think of her primarily as a woman when they cast their votes, but rather simply as a politician. However, her recent slogan and response to the question, "Can there ever be a woman president?" has been "We'll never know until we try." This is an argument that does not disregard the fact that she is a woman, but rather revels in it. It is also a good way for her ambitions to become marginalized. She is a strong politician, and a great candidate for the presidency, but at this point, her campaign is running on two things:

1. She is a woman.

2. She is married to an ex-president who was popular enough himself to survive the worst scandal since Watergate.

As such, these are the only things the average American voter knows about her are these. And, yes, the average American is an idiot for this, and, yes, this will probably get her past the primary, where her main competitor has a name that the average American will equate with a Middle Eastern dictator's. However, this will probably not get her past the actual election, in which her main competitor will probably be the man who led New York through one of its worst crises. And so, for the sake of the American people, please, please, Hillary, tell us more about yourself. You know what happened the last time a Democratic presidential hopeful couldn't take a convincing stand.
