Talking politics with our teens should definitely be on the table-talk agenda.

For me, Palin's nomination raises a significant question: Is a woman candidate always a women's candidate? How would she fight for women's causes?

No matter where we think the state of our country stands, no matter how low, there are increasing numbers of young men and women just like Rachel who see this moment as their chance to change things.

Many women voters find much to admire about Palin, but that does not mean they will vote for her without knowing what it would mean to their lives.

Two New York women decided to speak out against Sarah Palin by sending an email to their friends asking them to fight back. The email ended up getting sent around the world, and now women from all over the globe have responded on how they view the Alaska governor.

The conversation shouldn't be about how many kids Gov. Palin has, which is essentially unchecked gender bias, it should be about the issues.

Part of the fascination with the Clinton v. Palin narrative comes from the contest for female voters, but the the reality is that no true Hillary voter is even a McCain/Palin prospect.

Palin doesn't believe that women or girls should have birth control. She believes every raped female who gets pregnant should have to carry the child to term.

Rejecting Sarah Palin could be the beginning of a renewed women's movement, a movement of content and boundaries, that uses its electoral power to achieve its ends.

Hillary and Palin occupy the same social caste -- white, professional women of faith, with families and they, in this way, are 'allowed' to attack each other, without the danger of it being too unseemly.

Clinton supporters are skeptical about your nomination, Sarah, and I've talked to others who are insulted. You see, they didn't support Senator Clinton because she was a woman but because she was their advocate.

I was sitting with my husband this morning and he suddenly wants to know what I've been doing with my life. Why am I not considering a bid for Secretary of State?

This race to the White House is going to get really dirty, really fast as the Dems and Republicans court the latest most desirable voting group: Empowered, enlightened and invigorated working women.

Obama gave a huge metaphorical hug to American women in general and moms in particular. I'll admit I actually teared up when he said that the day she died was the worst of his life.

An early champion of civil rights and a lifelong defender of the less fortunate, she has made a difference in the lives of millions of ordinary Americans. She knew what it took as she sat across from the man she found too young and too brash to lead.

Though the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution giving women the right to vote was not ratified until 1920, women in Colorado had earned the right to vote before this time.

My focus at "Rebooting the System" was to learn how technology was impacting women's issues, the dissemination of information, and the role that women were playing in this arena.

Even if I weren't a girl, I'd be recommending that the smartest choice is that Obama's running mate be a woman. My three picks are Hillary Clinton, Janet Napolitano, and Olympia Snowe.
