No, Boo-boo Kitty, Hillary Clinton just proved she wasn't the right woman for the job. Contrary to what you've been told, there's more than one woman in politics.
I haven't been told anything. I'm asking if Hillary's inability to address her supporters as an adult gives credence to those who claim women can't handle a job like President.
She did after all run on the platform of breaking that final glass ceiling. Then when she lost, she was absolutely unable to face up to it. Instead she threw a fit, cried, and hid from the media. And to make matters worse, it took Obama, a man, to tell her that she has to concede.
Many liberals never mention this her SECOND lost election to be President.
Agreed and the 1st loss was to a mixed race "Black" dude who went on and, became POTUS, 2 times.
Either there's more prejudice against women or; Hillary was so bad that a "person of color" still beat her with all possible racism against at least Blacks here in the US.
As I stated in the OP, and it's been verified, Hillary conceded on election night. What she didn't do is face her supporters as an adult to tell them so. Instead she cried, attacked her campaign staff, and hid from the media.
And she also blamed Obama and hubby Bill too! It's everyone else's fault! They all failed me! Harry Truman said "The buck stops here". Perhaps peoples opinion of HRC would actually rise a bit if she adopted and lived by that motto.
To listen to that women, you'd think she'd never done anything wrong in her life....it's always someone else persecuting her, or wrongly accusing her, or sabotaging her efforts. She's perfect ya know, just ask her!
She was the absolute wrong candidate for the wrong time. I cannot think of anyone else they could have picked that would have been worse...within reason of course. I realize we're picking a leader, not a person we want to socialize with, but none the less, she is not in the least a likable person. It's far to easy to dislike her as just a basic natural reaction.
And the "creme" de la crème, she freaking lost the election to Donald J. Trump! Who was as anti-PC as you could possible be, spoke frequently without thinking first, had never held public office before...not even a local level politician, was looked upon as a "joke campaign" by many others, and of course the now famous line uttered by HRC....half his supporters are a basket of deplorables, and later, well maybe not quite half.....all this, and he beat her!
What the heck does that say about her ? If she couldn't beat this guy, she should hole up in Chappaqua with her tail between her legs......and perhaps start a dog walking service since she need a few friends about now.
Does 5 wars including 15 years in a third world country, lies, corruption and 20 trillion in debt prove men are incapable of running the country?
I'm not sure of your point but......
Hillary did prove she was right up there with them on this as she voted for and supported all those wars as US Senator and as Obama's Secretary of State.
I think she was trying to buy time and was receiving recommendations not to concede until the votes were all in. I do not think that is a reflection on women, or her, being up to the task.
I thought it was because she was in a drunken rage.
"Did Hillary Prove That Women Aren't Up To The Task of US President?" No, she proved that Hillary Clinton was unelectable. Carly Fiorina probably would have won running away.
Fiorina v Clinton debates would have been even rougher and nastier than the Trump v Clinton.

I voted for Obama over Hillary in the primary. I voted for Sanders over Hillary in the primary. The ONLY reason I voted for Hillary in this election was because Trump was the wrong PERSON. It is called voting AGAINST a candidate. I don't care about a candidate's gender, or race, as long as they are the right HUMAN for the job.
