Review
"Senator Hillary Clinton won 18 million votes in 2008 - nearly twice that of any presidential contender in recent history - yet she failed to secure the Democratic nomination. In this look at Clinton's historic candidacy, Regina Lawrence and Melody Rose explore how she came so close to breaking the ultimate glass ceiling in US politics, why she fell short, and what her experience portends for future female candidates in the media-saturated game of presidential politics"--Jacket
