Our modern historical period is characterized by more activity of women involved in politics. Have you ever thought that this right was not always a right for women? Today women play really major role in politics.
In 2007, 86 women serve in the U.S. Congress. Sixteen women serve in the Senate, and 70 women serve in the House. The number of women in statewide elective executive posts is 76, while the proportion of women in state legislatures is at 23.5 percent. Now, a Senator for New York and a candidate for the democratic nomination, Hillary Clinton could be set to become America’s first woman president.
