I just found that out on the 12:00pm news. It was a women from Ohio I didn't know that Did you? her name was last name Woodruff in 1827 I woner why it took so long for another women to run? that seem strange. I still say she will make a good President.

Actually another woman ran in 2004. Carol Mosely Braun, a Congresswoman ran in 2004, but eventually dropped out and endorsed Howard Dean. Women running is not a new thing, rather it is commonplace. The rarity is that this time a woman has a legitmate shot.

You mean ther is a Women President in the Philippine. Now didn't know that either so she won't be the first women Pres. in the world.

Maybe that "glass ceiling". I think that a lot of the reasoning behind her being an acceptable candidate for presidency is because her husband was so well liked as a president. I'd vote for her.
