Women today have gained the same rights and respect as men have. Women have now migrated out of the homes and into the workforce, proving that yes, the job is done better in heels. Thankfully, seeing an independent and successful woman has become a norm and in fact encouraged (shout out to Beyoncé). However, despite the success this country has seen regarding women, there is one place at the core of this country that is lacking– the White House.

The White House is currently the ultimate men’s club, as no woman has stepped up to challenge these men’s ideologies or policies–until now. For this 2016 election, two women are going up against the men, and I think one is a perfect fit for the job: Carly Fiorina (GOP).

As I am a political fanatic, I have watched each GOP debate religiously. From Donald Trump’s obnoxious comments to Ben Carson’s ‘anti-political correctness’ ideas, to me, Fiorina consistently comes out on top. Her presence behind the podium is fierce, yet graceful, and her ideas are well executed. She exemplifies all traits of a leader, which is supported by the fact that she is a CEO, she is consistent with her views and she stays strong when confronted.

Despite her clear excellence, Fiorinia keeps falling down in the polls and not receiving the proper media attention. The Atlantic, in an article titled “What Happened to Carly Fiorina,” said, “She doesn’t seem to be as good at collecting ‘earned media’—attention in the press, more or less. Donald Trump and Ben Carson, in contrast, are great at creating controversies that get them on TV.”

Fiorina received such little attention in the beginning that even Hillary Clinton did not know another woman decided to run.

As per usual, the media focuses its attention to only the extremely outspoken and aggressive candidates, leaving people like Fiorina, who has shown great qualities, out of the picture. The presidential race has gradually become more about social media than about actual logic, facts and thoughts.

The Atlantic continues to analyze Fiorina’s downfall and adds how being a woman does, indeed, hurt her as a candidate. The article states, “While Americans have become dramatically more willing to elect a female president over the last quarter-century, there remains some reluctance.”

The men’s club strikes again. Nevermind the fact that Fiorina is obviously one of the stronger candidates, she’s a woman so therefore, her chances of winning decrease.

Excuse me, but I thought this was the 21st century. Why does it still matter if a person has boobs or not? It shocks me that this country cannot get over the male versus female dynamic.

This country is in trouble and the problem is the White House. I believe having Fiorina as America’s next president will make this country great again (sorry, not sorry, Trump). After all, as Margaret Thatcher once said, “If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman.”
