Hillary Clinton is certainly a formidable woman, with quite a history. She stayed with Bill through his "cigar" infidelities with an intern, so perhaps this also lays a "stain" on her. What do you think?
Barrock is no better. He will lead this world into mass destruction because he is not a Christian as he would like you to believe. He is a Muslim and will cater to Iran and all the Muslim Countries. Wake up People, right now there is no Democrat that will give a dam what happens to you and your family. Their only motivation is Personal Gain, Prestige and MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This site is dedicated to the women who have ruled since the beginning of times - or as long as the sources date back.
There have always been female rulers. Some Egyptian Queens are believed to have governed from around 3000 BCE, and the first to be named by the sources without any doubt is Ku-baba, who ruled the Mesopotamian City-State of Ur round 2500 BCE.
First female ministers
However, it was not until during and just after the World War I that the first few women became members of the revolutionary governments in Ukraine, Russia, Hungary and Ireland. Nina Bang, Danish Minister of Education 1924-26, was the first woman to be minister in democratically elected parliamentary government. See more in First female ministers. Nevertheless, development was slow and it was not until the end of the 20th century that female ministers stopped being unusual.
First female Prime Minister and President

In 1960 Sirivamo Bandaranaike of Sri Lanka became the world's first female elected Premier Minister and in 1974 Isabel Perón of Argentina became the first woman President - one woman had been Acting Head of Government and two women Acting Heads of State before that.
Today, the only two countries, which never had a female member of government in at least a sub-ministerial position, are Monaco and Saudi Arabia. The Vatican has got one Assistant Vice-Minister. In 1999 Sweden became the first country to have more female ministers than male. 11 women and 9 men, in 2007 the Finish government had 60% women.
Current female heads of state and government
There are 192 members of the United Nations and 2 independent states outside, a few self-declared de-facto independent states and many self-ruling depencies. 19 have got female leaders at the moment.
Of the monarchies, there are reigning Queens in 3 countries: Denmark, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom - and the latter is represented by female Governor Generals in Antigua and Barbuda, Canada and Saint Lucia, who function as their countries' de-facto Heads of State.
The 6 female Presidents are in Argentina, Chile, Finland, India, Ireland, Liberia and The Philippines.
At the moment there are 7 woman Prime Ministers; in Germany, New Zealand, Moldavia, Mozambique, The Netherlands Antilles, Ukraine and The Åland Islands. For more details see: Situation in 2008

Not to a large experience dealing with Arabs. Both with my service in the Gulf in 91 and a stint in the state department. You speak of respect? They have none! The term infidel which is commonly used by many over there in reference to all that are not like them. While translation is simple ( one without faith ) carries a whole different meaning to them. For a race that values faith above all else! Before mother, daughter even one's self. To say one has no faith is to say one is less than human!
So in that sense your argument has no base. Don't ever sell your self or other women short or the whole point of my service was worthless!
My other point is there is no half way with these people. Most of them see kindness as a weakness. Here is a photo of what they do to a girl that looks at the wrong boy.
PS: How long should we wait for them, their ideals are still in the 1200's?
