In a recent statement, former President Bill Clinton predicted that the first woman to occupy the Oval Office will be a Republican, citing the party’s potential to break barriers and connect with broader swathes of the American electorate. While his comment stirred debate, it raises the question of whether the political landscape is indeed shifting in a way that could make a Republican woman the next leader of the United States, or if historical patterns will continue to favor Democrats in the pursuit of gender equality in the presidency.
