It makes no difference whether the President, Prime Minister or the Chancellor is a male or female. France almosts chose a woman called Royal as their President one week ago. How about Germany, England and Canada ? They all had female Prime Minister, Chancellor. It is the polices that count not the sex and race of the person that holds the office.
Angela Merkel, who studied physics and holds a doctorate in physical chemistry, is simultaneously the first female Chancellor of Germany, the first citizen of the former German Democratic Republic to assume the chancellery of reunited Germany, and the first woman to lead Germany since it became a modern nation-state in 1871. She is also, as of 2007, the youngest person to be German chancellor since the Second World War. Merkel, considered by Forbes Magazine to be the most powerful woman in the world, is only the third woman to serve on the G8 (after Margaret Thatcher of the UK and Kim Campbell of Canada) and in 2007 became the second woman to chair a G8 summit after Thatcher.
P.S. I like Mike Bloomberg, but have to wait for 4-8 years. Sorry the Democratic lock up this Election because some one named Bush failed the country. if the 3-4 ? US servicemen captured in Iraqi were killed, the Republican may finally say enough is enough in Iraqi. There is no way out !
