    When talking about the political system, specifically the presidential aspect, a mandate refers to the authority that is given to a certain person or persons, which is governed by the people. So, for our representative democracy, a president, although may not be totally voted for from the public, is our representative. Also, when an election results in a landslide for one of the candidates, they often claim that their policies have received a mandate from the voter population. Although a candidate may have been elected and may have seemed as per a popular vote, it might have just been from other ways, such as the electoral college. So, in some instances in the past, such as president Washington, a president has been elected not necessarly by the people, but from delegates and representatives.…

A woman such as Sarah Palin, who fought her way into a prominent position on her own through hard work and dedication, is a true feminist.

After Bill got out of office, Hillary was essentially inserted as a senator in New York, a very liberal state, where she won using Bill’s name. Afterwards, she was appointed as the secretary of state, again because her husband was the former president.…

    While many might argue that discrimination against women has dissipated over the past fifty years, it still plays a role in the gender wage gap. We can still see hints of discrimination as we listen to politicians’ debate about whether or not a woman can be an effective President of the United States. In addition to discrimination, gender roles and domestic responsibilities have had significant influence on the gender wage gap. Domestic duties are still largely handled by women making them more likely than men to leave the workplace when domestic issues arise. Because of this, women may be seen as less valuable than men and if a women needs to take maternity leave or request time off to care for sick children, she may be considered a threat to long term productivity (Magnusson, 2010).…
