Clinton: 50 Percent of my Cabinet Will Be Women

Hillary Clinton promised Monday night that as president, she'll follow Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's lead and name women to half of her cabinet posts. 

"Canada has a new prime minister," Rachel Maddow began during her townhall with Clinton. "He promised when he took office that he would have a cabinet that was 50% women and then he did it. He made good on his promise. Would you make that same pledge?"

"I am going to have a cabinet that looks like America and 50 percent of America is women," Clinton replied.

"So that’s a yes?" Maddow followed up. 

Clinton then nodded her head, albeit uncertainly.
