Going off our discussion from last week about the shows " Commander and Chief" and "Battlestar Gallectica," I wanted to bring in a new show, "Political Animals." I forgot to mention this show in our class discussion but I feel that his women leader is different from what we have mostly seen on television. Elaine Barrish ( Sogourney Weaver) plays the secretary of state, was the former governor of Illinois and was a potential presidential candidate. I feel that she may be the exception to "women are only in these leadership roles because of last resorts." Barrish also has a lot in common with Hilary Clinton, which is why she may be the exception. Hilary Clinton was very mus so a revolutionary first lady. I have inlcuded an article about the show and Hilary Clinton.
