Comparing the approach of Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris:
Kamala Harris has deliberately avoided the "glass ceiling" metaphor that was central to Hillary Clinton's campaign. Harris's team has chosen a more nuanced approach, focusing less on her gender and more on her actions and policies. This strategy is aimed at preventing Trump from exploiting gender issues.
In contrast, Hillary Clinton heavily emphasized the historical significance of breaking the "glass ceiling" and often highlighted her role as a woman in politics. This approach, while significant, may have alienated some voters who found it too focused on gender dynamics.
