Another related question is how countertop shenanigans intersect with the gender dynamics ''vis-à-vis'' the women in the field....the obvious question here is whether a woman could really scramble around on furniture and still be taken seriously as a potential leader....It’s not his fault that he can get away with certain things that some of his rivals probably couldn’t. His strengths are in contrast. With [[Biden]], he presents a pretty clean case of young versus old; compared with Harris, Warren, [[Amy Klobuchar]], and [[Kirsten Gillibrand]], it looks to a lot of people like a very literal case of a brash young man asking to be promoted ahead of a bunch of better-qualified women.... the whole idea of his candidacy strikes other observers as a somewhat enraging display of privilege.
