Clinton says half her Cabinet will be women

Flamby, Sturgeon, Lofven and Renzi made their cabinets equal as well, fwiw

If we accept that men and women are overall similar in the temperaments needed to be a Cabinet member and we recognise that just as many women have higher education as men; then we would expect a roughly equal ratio between men and women in high-end positions. The fact that there isn't suggests an in-house bias against women, which can be corrected with the crude tool of quotas.

Studies have shown that teams of mixed gender tend to perform better than single gender teams. Therefore it would be advantageous to break-up boy's clubs.

Also lol at people saying "I don't care if she has an all femald/male/Chinese/Quebecois/Otherkin Pansexual Cabinet, if they're the most qualified!". Pull the other one. If Clinton came up with a Cabinet that was all lesbian Filipinas and said "oh it just turned out that these were all the most qualified" I doubt you'd give the benefit of the doubt.

Adam, there's too many politicians on your list. She'd want a few technocrats, especially ones she knows and trusts.

I think King would stay on in Education.

Omg if HRC really wants to set the cat amongst the pigeons, she could appoint Michelle Rhee lmao.
