I'm afraid of that too. Ferraro's run was a long time ago. And Clinton is not the first woman to run for the presidential nomination - though she certainly got a lot further than Shirley Chisholm!
I also think the above article is worrying in that it suggests she ran a worse campaign than Obama - not that sexism was rampant throughout the campaign. By which measure was her campaign worse? And at which point in the campaign were names like 'Hildebeast' and 'Hitlary' not being tossed around?
