A Woman As President

I think that many women are looking forward to a chance to vote for a woman for President. Every major country has, at one time or another in modern history, had a female as the president or prime minister:
India: Indira Gandi, Israel: Golda Meir, Corazon Aquino: Philipines, England: Margaret Thatcher,
Argentina: Isabel Peron, Benazir Bhutto: Pakistan, Angela Merkel: Germany, are just a few.

Isn't it time for the United States to have a woman as President? With Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House, our daughters have been able to watch a female lead the Congress. Pelosi has been a great role model. Now it is time to go forward another step--- elect a woman as President. Those suffragettes of the early 1900's would be so proud of how far we've come.
