OBAMA: “And I realized, oh, this is how they do women in politics. This is how we treat women in public life. We diminish them to just what they look like and not what I’m saying — I’m giving him passionate speeches. I think people know now that I can give a speech.”

PALMER: “Okay.”

OBAMA: “That wasn’t just — that didn’t just start happening. You know, I was — I was always really good on the campaign trail. I was always a powerful orator.”
