Women in Charge

While a country such as the U.S., which prides itself on being so democratic and egalitarian, is still pondering if it should have a female candidate for the presidency, Chile has not only one but two, one of which was president from 2006 to 2010. Bachelet is sure to repeat, come December 15, in a runoff election.

Which goes to show that the world is far ahead of the so-called "leader of the free world" and the "world's leading democracy", in recognizing women's talents for governance and political leadership.
