Dr. Peter Weinstein and Dr. Nelson discuss the implications of the upcoming election, focusing on the 'Hillary Clinton effect' and the challenges faced by female candidates in a predominantly male political landscape. They explore the intersections of sexism and racism, the role of media in shaping political narratives, and the historical context of female leadership in politics. The conversation emphasizes the need for a shift towards recognizing qualifications over gender and calls for a broader discussion on these critical issues.
