What it will take for a woman to be president

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

Hour 1
Despite the apparent strides made on the 2008 campaign trail made by Democratic runnerup Hillary Clinton and Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, ANNE E. KORNBLUT argues in her new book, "Notes from the Cracked Ceiling: Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin and What It Will Take for a Woman to Win," that the U.S. is not quite ready for a female president.

Our guests are law professor and writer RICHARD THOMPSON FORD and OMAR WASOW, writer and Ph.D. candidate at Harvard University.
