Topic - Voting for a Woman President In 1920, the Nineteenth Amendment made it clear that no state may deny the right to vote on the bases of sex, (Wilson, Dilulio, & Bose, 2016). Since then the 18-24 year old women voters in America have taking the lead and the men have been out numbered; as far as voting in elections as 55% of the women voted for Obama, whereas only 45% of the men voted him in as our president.

Giving opportunity where it once didn 't exist, where women were made to feel inferior to men, where women were viewed as baby makers, housewives, in other words - inadequate.
