Has Caitlyn (Bruce) Jenner Become The Most Popular Woman In America? Sorry Hillary and Oprah

At the age of 65, Caitlyn Jenner has become far more famous than Olympic athlete Bruce Jenner ever was. She is the most high-profile American to ever identify as transgender, and right now she is getting a global tsunami of media attention – most of it extraordinarily positive. When Caitlyn’s Vanity Fair cover was released on Monday, it was front page news for almost every major news source in the western world. But it isn’t just the media that is fawning over her. Within just a few hours, Caitlyn Jenner received more than 100,000 likes on a brand new Facebook page that she set up for her new identity. On Twitter, the euphoria was even greater. Within fours hours and three minutes of setting up her new Twitter account, she had a million followers. That beat the official world record that had previously been held by Barack Obama. As I write this, she now has more than 2.2 million followers. So precisely why has Caitlyn Jenner become such an overnight sensation, and could it be possible that she is now the most popular woman in America?

If it isn’t Caitlyn, who would it be?

It certainly isn’t Hillary Clinton. A new CNN/ORC poll that just came out found that 57 percent of all Americans believe that Hillary “is not honest and trustworthy”.

So what about Oprah?

Well, yes Oprah was exceedingly popular for a very long time, but she was far more popular back in 2005 than she is in 2015.

At this moment, Caitlyn Jenner may be the most popular woman in America, and it is because she embodies what so many people in this country want for the future of this nation. In the United States today, it is estimated that there are about 700,000 people that identify as transgender, and there are millions of others that identify as gay or lesbian. To those communities, Caitlyn Jenner is more than a hero – she is a symbol of their hopes and their dreams. In addition, Gallup has found that overall support for gay marriage in America is at an all-time record high of 60 percent. Jenner represents the direction that our culture is headed, and so most of the nation is greatly celebrating what she has done.
