Abstract

Although many nations have had a woman serve as president or prime minister, the United States has yet to come close to electing its first female president. Using profiles of the women who have pursued the presidency in the United States, as well as scholarly literature on women and executive politics, this study offers a comparative analysis of the factors impacting their campaigns and provides lessons from these trailblazing, but unsuccessful efforts that might prove to be relevant for future female candidates for the White House.
