Little girl asks Hillary if she'll be paid the same amount as a male president
An adorable little girl who was definitely not planted by the Clinton campaign stood up at a Las Vegas town hall on Tuesday and asked presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, "Do you think when you're president you'll be paid the same as if you were a man?" The crowd, of course, erupted into cheers, and Clinton laughed and rewarded the precocious child with a photo-op for her parents to upload to Facebook.
"This is one of the jobs where they have to pay you the same," Clinton responded. "But there are so many examples where that doesn't happen, where women doing the same jobs are not paid the same. So, as president, I'm going to do everything I can to make sure not just the president gets paid the same, whether it's a woman or a man, but every woman in every job gets paid the same as the men also doing that job."
