Clinton, McCain next to give big speeches?

Mitt Romney gave his speech on Faith in America.

Barack Obama gave his speech on Race in America.

John McCain gave his speech on Old White Men in America. 

Oh wait a minute, he didn't do that.  He doesn't have to do that.  We're used to having old white men run this country.  It's the religious and racial minorities that really get this country freaked out.  They're the ones who get backed into corners, who get reminded everyday that they're different, who start out with a certain percentage of the electorate hell-bent against them simply because of their creed or color.  They're the ones who have to bend over backwards to define themselves, demystify themselves, declare to the country that they're not boogeymen.

When will Hillary Clinton give her speech on Gender in America?  Perhaps she doesn't have to make such a speech.  And perhaps that says something about our country, that (thus far, anyway) Senator Clinton hasn't had to define herself vis-a-vis her gender the way that Romney did with religion and Obama did with race/religion.  Gender equality is still far off in this country, but perhaps - just perhaps - Hillary Clinton won't have to give a Gender in America speech.  And that's good news.
