Like A Natural Woman

“Judged against history, Hillary Clinton’s campaign has been, by any measure, a success. There have only been a handful of women to try for the presidency—most famously Victoria Woodhull (1872), Belva Lockwood (1884, 1888), and Shirley Chisholm (1972)—and no one, including them, thought they had a chance. But the woman who conceded defeat last Saturday before a crowd still wild with enthusiasm for her wasn’t just the worthy in a story of female progress. Hers is a story of remarkable transformation. By the end of her run she was a larger-than-life figure, vilified by her enemies but also admired, extolled, and beloved by millions in a way she never had been before.”
