Are Young American Ready To Vote For A Madam President?

Predicting the 2024 Presidential Election

For decades, my guest has correctly predicted every U.S. presidential election!

The 2024 presidential election is shaping out to be a close race. But you already knew that.

What you probably didn’t know, or at least didn’t know for certain, is that one reason — an important one — that many Americans may not vote for Kamala Harris is because… she is a woman!

I was reading Generational Politics in the United State from the Silents to Gen Z and Beyond in preparation for my interview with Dr. Schultz (see bio below). And I was shocked to learn that surveys and academic studies conclude one major explanation for why many Americans voted for Donald Trump in 2016 is that Hillary Clinton is a woman.

But there is more.

More recent studies bolster the prior startling conclusion — that Americans are just not ready to elect a woman for the highest office in our country. And what’s more tragic is that a bulk of these “Americans” are actually young men, who (and this boggles the mind) think about women and women’s rights the way their grandfathers do!
