In reply to the discussion: Why picking a female VP would be advantageous to Hillary [View all]yallerdawg

No one recognizes the casual sexism inherent in this position?
Hillary is our Democratic nominee. She just happens to be a woman. Which is great, and historic, and all.
Elizabeth Warren has come out swinging at Trump harder and stronger than anyone else, her 'progressive' Wall Street vs Main Street credentials are impeccable, she is already well-recognized nationally...and she just happens to be a woman.
Add it all up, and Clinton/Warren would be a dynamic candidacy of two experienced, qualified candidates unmatched by any of the Republican candidates!
And if an "all female" Democratic ticket inspires you in any way, good for you! 44 men and counting, right?
It can be, and should be, nothing but a positive attribute here in the 21st Century!
