Abstract
Abstract The movement of Feminism presented a huge deal within the American presidential campaigns, which allowed women to begin a new chapter in their lives, strongly claiming for equality and administrative rights. The purpose of this study is to address the issue of feminism that took place in the American presidential campaigns of 2008 to 2016 in the case of the very first female Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. It aims to examine Hillary's strategic methods and the way she integrated feminist influence within her campaigns. Thus it will also investigate the reasons weather being a revolutionary feminist served her as a significant political figure on long term basis or on the contrary put her under the spotlight of major media speculation and political criticism. This research paper consists of two chapters; the first part will be presenting a theoretical background of the concerned case of study Hillary Clinton and her distinctive political career under the siege of the feminist revolution. Then comes the second chapter, involving the critical platform of Hillary's feminist audience and going over the main causes and consequences of the failing campaign of 2016. As a result, Feminism did leave its print in American politics, as well as in Hillary Clintonâs lifetime.
