Of the 2,494 people ever to serve as a United States governor, not one has been a black woman. Cosmopolitan's Rebecca Nelson joins us to introduce us to a candidate who wants to change that: Georgia's Stacey Abrams. She's running for governor in a state that has not elected a Democrat since 2003.
Nelson discusses life on the campaign trail with the potentially history-making candidate. She gives a rundown of her platform, and considers the role that race is playing in her campaign. While it isn't the central message of her historic run, Abrams says, "Being black is not a deficit. It is a strength."
Nelson breaks down Abrams' resume, which includes being an author of romance novels. We also discuss the candidate's White House aspirations. She says she plans on running for president in 2028.
