2011 Hofstra University graduate Veronica De Souza created the Binders Full of Women Tumblr page after Governor Romney said the phrase during the second Presidential debate Tuesday night.
As the two candidates discussed the topic of pay for women during the debate, Governor Romney used the phrase “binders full of women” when he said, “I went to a number of women’s groups and said, ‘Can you help us find folks,’ and they brought us whole binders full of women.” While watching from her Brooklyn residence, Veronica De Souza, a 2011 graduate of the same university holding the debate, created the Tumblr page ‘Binders Full of Women’ in response to the quote.
