Marie Wilson — The White House Project
From Elect Women Magazine
The White House Project is working to build a critical mass of female candidates running for public office. The organization’s pioneering grassroots initiative – Vote, Run, Lead – offers a real life experience into leading a political life. The United States currently ranks 71st in the world in terms of women holding political office.
Wilson believes we, in the United States, haven’t been thinking big enough. “We need a massive effort to recruit, train and support women running for office,” said Wilson. “All the groups need to be there, to work together to build awareness of how far behind we are and to prepare women to run.”
