Here's How Not to Cover Women Running in 2020

Women presidential candidates face double pressures, according to Louisiana State University political communication assistant professor Nichole Bauer. First, they risk being perceived as not forceful enough to become the next occupant of the Oval Office. Secondly, they cannot be considered too aggressive out of fear of alienating voters. "They have to fit into this image of what being a president looks like," Bauer said. "They have to seem to be the cookie baker in chief and the commander in chief at the same time," she added, referring in part to the famous comment Hillary Clinton made about baked goods as Bill Clinton campaigned for the White House in 1992. "I suppose I could have stayed home and baked cookies and had teas," she said.

With an NBC/Wall Street Journal poll in February finding 84% of Americans were comfortable with a woman becoming the party's pick to take on President Trump next year, Boston-based Democratic strategist Mary Ann Marsh objected to the idea that their efforts to appear more feminine were retro or submissive."I think that media perception or characterization is demeaning, patronizing, and misogynistic," Marsh said. "Women have to be many things every day. They don't have one job, they have multiple jobs. If you ask, most kids in America would say their mother fed them last night. That's not the 1950s. That's 2019." But San Francisco-based Democratic strategist Donnie Fowler, who was mindful of not "mansplaining," said the political reality was every contender has to compete in the electorate he or she has rather than the one they ideally want.

"Yes, there still is gender bias among Democrats and the record number of women candidates running for the nomination must overcome that in their own way - but authentically, absolutely uncontrived and completely true to who they are," Fowler said. "The question is whether the politicians are the most important part of rectifying that or whether it's up to the voters themselves."

"Until the day that we no longer have abortions in this country, I will never waiver in the fight for life," Parson said during a rally Wednesday.

Under the bill, which passed in the House by 110 to 44, doctors who perform an abortion after the eight-week cutoff could face five to 15 years in prison. Women who receive abortions would not be criminally penalized.

"Most of my rapes were not the gentlemen jumping out of the bushes that nobody had ever met. That was one or two times out of one hundred. Most of them were date rapes or consensual rapes, which were all terrible, but I sat in court - sat in court - when juries would struggle with those types of situations where it was a 'he-said she-said,' and they would find the person not guilty. Unfortunately, if it really happened, but I had no control over that, because it was a judge or a jury making those decisions. But we'll just say someone is sexually assaulted. They have eight weeks to make a decision."

To see in Alabama that if someone is raped and she seeks an abortion, the doctor who treats her will be penalized with a longer prison term than her rapist makes me question whether the discussion about freedom in this country has gone off the rails."

Sapol said that a woman selling condos at the resort met with her and showed her brochures of what the resort would look like - and they came complete with an endorsement from Trump himself that guaranteed people would have “the time of their lives” at his new resort. “Whatever Donald Trump touches turns fantastically gold,” Sapol said in explaining her reason for buying the condo. But the resort was never built and Sapol lost all the money she invested. On the site of where the hotel was supposed to be constructed is a giant hole in the ground - and nothing more.

"Looking at the bones of the foot, it was clear that Rhoetosaurus walked with an elevated heel, raising the question: how was its foot able to support the immense mass of this animal, up to 40 tonnes?" Mr Jannel said. "Our research suggests that even though Rhoetosaurus stood on its tiptoes, the heel was cushioned by fleshy pad." "We see a similar thing in elephant feet, but this dinosaur was at least five times as heavy as an elephant, so the forces involved are much greater."
