  • Ferraro Dies; Was First Woman to Seek Vice Presidency for Major Party
    Ferraro dies; was first woman to seek vice presidency for major party BOSTON – Geraldine Ferraro, a lawyer and former congresswoman who in 1984 became the first woman to seek the vice presidency on a major political party ticket, died March 26 at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. Ferraro was not only the first woman on a major party’s presidential ticket, she was the first Catholic Democrat to be nominated after abortion became a significant issue in political campaigns. A family representative said she had been suffering from a type of blood cancer known as multiple myeloma, which was first diagnosed in 1998. She was 75 years old. The Associated Press reported that a funeral Mass for Ferraro was to be celebrated March 31 at the Church of St. Vincent Ferrer in Manhattan. AP said attendance at the funeral would be limited to friends and family and that no press coverage would be permitted. Ferraro is survived by her husband of 51 years, John Zaccaro, and her children, Donna, John Jr. and Laura. From the first day of her campaign for vice president – as running mate of former Vice President Walter Mondale of Minnesota – Ferraro was challenged about how she could be a “good Catholic” and vote as she did in support of legal abortion. Throughout the campaign, Ferraro was met by pro-life protesters and was regularly challenged for saying that, although she accepted church teaching that abortion is wrong, a range of political positions on the topic could be acceptable. In accepting the nomination for vice president July 19, 1984, at the Democratic National Convention in San Francisco, Ferraro stressed family, fairness and hard work.

With a female vice president in office, has media gender-bias left the presidential campaign trail? The short answer is no, and the reason why is deep rooted. Abstract An examination of treatment in the media of female vice presidential candidates—Geraldine Ferraro (1984), Sarah Palin (2008) and Kamala Harris (2020)—surfaces a trend of gender bias perpetuated by subtly sexist language in all three campaigns.

  • Ethnic and Racial Identity in Italian-American Postwar Political Experience, 1945-2008
    Saggi From William C. Celentano to Barack Obama: Ethnic and Racial Identity in Italian-American Postwar Political Experience, 1945-2008 Stefano Luconi Università degli Studi di Roma «Tor Vergata» According to conventional wisdom, political science has generally overlooked an in-depth examination of Italian-American voting behavior and politics (Martellone, 1991; Cappelli, 2008). This contention, however, hardly depicts the state of the art in the 1960s. After the number of Italian-Americans serv- ing in the U.S. House of Representatives and state legislatures in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island had roughly doubled during the previous decade, this ethnic minority seemed a ris- ing political group and consequently captured scholarly attention (Lubell, 1965, pp. 76-77). In particular, in the 1960s academicians drew upon the electoral history and events involving the Little Italy in the city of New Haven, Con- necticut, as a microcosm for case studies to analyze ethnic politics. Specifically, at the beginning of that decade, in a path-breaking research on the mechanics of municipal politics, Who Governs?, Robert A. Dahl (1961) used the example of Italian-American William C. Celentano’s 1945 rise to the mayoralty in New Haven in order to elaborate an influential three-stage theory for the political assimilation of immigrant groups in the United States. The local Republican organization slated Celentano, an undertaker by pro- fession, to lure his fellow ethnics into breaking away from the Irish-dominated Democratic Party. Defeated in 1939 and bypassed in the choice of candidates for the duration of World War II because his Italian descent made him a liability while his ancestral country was fighting against the United States, Celentano received again the Republican nomination in 1945 and, this time, managed to © Centro Altreitalie, Globus et Locus 7 Altreitalie gennaio-dicembre 2009 win election to City Hall.

  • Analyzing New York Times Coverage of Geraldine Ferraro's
    “American women never again will be second-class citizens”: Analyzing New York Times coverage of Geraldine Ferraro’s 1984 vice-presidential bid Submitted by Tracy Everbach, Ph.D. University of North Texas Contact: [email protected], 214-995-8464 1 Abstract This qualitative, interpretive study sought to examine New York Times coverage of Geraldine Ferraro, the first female vice presidential candidate in the United States, during the 1984 presidential election. Employing previously established frames, the analysis found that The New York Times treated Ferraro as a viable vice presidential candidate. Some stories about Ferraro veered into Italian-American ethnic stereotypes when the angle focused on questions about her husband’s finances. Although the 1984 stories published by the Times overall showed promise that political women would move forward with equitable coverage to men, the study found that Ferraro’s bold prediction that “American women never again will be second-class citizens” did not hold true. Comparison with mainstream media coverage of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin 24 years later and of other candidates such as Hillary Clinton revealed that hegemonic masculinity in political coverage is firmly entrenched. In fact, Ferraro’s treatment by the Times in 1984 was more gender-equitable than more recent media coverage of female political candidates in the 21st century. 2 On July 12, 1984, U.S. Representative Geraldine Ferraro of New York, 49, became the first female vice presidential candidate on a major-party ticket in the United States when Democratic Senator Walter Mondale, 56, named her as his running mate. Another woman would not join a major-party ticket until 24 years later, when Republican Senator John McCain, 72, chose then-Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, 44, as his vice- presidential candidate.

  • The Boss Didn't Play Politics
    The Boss Didn't Play Politics Elliott Jacobson, New York Law Journal December 16, 2016 It was the fall of 1984. I was a 29-year-old assistant district attorney in the storied Rackets Bu- reau of the Manhattan District Attorney's Office. And my docket included an undercover investi- gation of a low-level public official—let us call him "Richard Roe"—who had been soliciting and receiving petty bribes. As I stepped off the elevator and into the eighth floor lobby of 100 Center St. one morning, I was immediately buttonholed by my bureau chief. "What's happening with the Richard Roe case?" he demanded. "Who wants to know?" I asked. "The Boss," he re- plied, using the moniker by which all of his employees referred to the legendary Manhattan Dis- trict Attorney Robert Morgenthau. I was immediately ushered into the Boss's private office where he and all of his top lieutenants were seated around a large conference table. After drawing deeply on a large Cuban cigar, as was his wont, the Boss spoke. He had just come from an early morning breakfast with a top city offi- cial who had it on good authority that the very Richard Roe whom I had been investigating was involved in a major financial fraud with one John Zaccaro, a Manhattan Realtor who was mar- ried to Geraldine Ferraro, the first woman to be the nominated by a major political party to be vice president of the United States and the running mate of Walter Mondale whose electoral bid sought to deny Ronald Reagan a second term in office.
