A Response to Gloria Steinem January 9, 2008 Ms. Steinem, In your op-ed, " Women Are Never Front-Runners," you claim that a woman with Barack Obama's record, experience, and biography would not be considered a viable candidate for the presidency of the United States, and you call for a feminist movement in support of Hillary Clinton. You declare, "What worries me is that some women, perhaps especially younger ones, hope to deny or escape the sexual caste system." As one of the countless younger women inspired by and active in Obama's movement for change, I feel compelled to respond.

A Response to Gloria Steinem

January 9, 2008

Ms. Steinem,

In your op-ed, " Women Are Never Front-Runners," you claim that a woman with Barack Obama's record, experience, and biography would not be considered a viable candidate for the presidency of the United States, and you call for a feminist movement in support of Hillary Clinton. You declare, "What worries me is that some women, perhaps especially younger ones, hope to deny or escape the sexual caste system." As one of the countless younger women inspired by and active in Obama's movement for change, I feel compelled to respond.
