Why Don't Women Run for Political Office

On November 23 there is an event called Why Don't Women Run for Political Office?

It's part of the political science speaker series and is being coordinated by Dr. Heather Rice. I think this is relevant to not only students at Slippery Rock because it is being conducted on campus-- but I also think it's an issue facing our generations.

Geena Davis stars in ABC's Commander 
in Chief as President Mackenzie Allen. 
The show (2005-2006) lasted  one season.
User reviewer Wendy A. on Metacritic's
website said, "It was one of the better show's
to watch."
There could be some interesting facts proposed by different sets of speakers throughout the evening, which would make for some nice direct quotes to use for the video. Also, the timing of this event is extremely prevelant considering the impact of the election has had on the media cycle so far.

It may not be earth-shattering news, but I do think it would make for a good video, especially if there are a variety of speakers. Also, there could be some interesting links to post throughout the video. Links to news, profiles on different women who've run for office, perhaps articles that have additional viewpoints on the subject at hand.
