The rest of the title is: The Making of America's First Woman President. This book was written 2015, published early 2016 just as the primaries were getting started for the 2016 Presidential election. Donald Trump is mentioned 3 times in the book and Hillary Clinton is mentioned too many times to count. A lot of research is referenced and polling about all matters of political questions and outcomes. I just wondered throughout the book if the author ever came out with a what went wrong article--I didn't look hard but didn't see one either. Lots of Hillary fans in the book but also a lot of East coast & West coast mentions, not much in the way of rust belt or midwest where Trump found his votes to victory. I remember seeing this book at the library sale & almost didn't buy it because it was too far out from the election of 2016 but figured still interesting in that info would still carry over to future elections with women involved. Also while reading, I am thinking the first female president might not be elected but instead a VP that moves up if one of the elderly men cannot finish their term. Still interesting in ways but I thought too much cheerleading for Hillary.
I have posted it on PBS & it is the only copy in system but not sure will move but who knows.
