And there is at least a 10% boost from women, who will vote for a woman simply because of her gender. Clinton seems to have gotten the benefit of that boost in this primary election. So how is it more difficult?

I bet there is still a solid 5 to 10% of people who will not vote for a woman. A 10% win s a landslide. It is possible, just more difficult for a woman. Hillary just didn't have the political skills.

Clinton's speech was definitely an ego massage. A woman becoming prime minister of Pakistan was an extraordinary accomplishment. A woman running for US president? not so much.

The more extraordinary aspect of Clinton's presidential bid is how she blew it when it was practically handed to heron a silver platter.

I didn't see the speech, but I don't think you were the target audience.
