Powerful Women

Recently, Forbes Magazine ran an article entitled "The World's 100 Most Powerful Women"

The top 10 are:
10. Carleton Carly Fiorina, Chairwoman & Chief Executive, Hewlett-Packard, US
9. Gloria Macpagal-Arroyo, President, Phillipines
8. Megawati Sukarnoputri, President, Indonesia
7. Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Supreme Court Justice, US
6. Sandra Day O'Connor, Supreme Court Justice, US
5. Hillary Rodham Clinton, Senator, US
4. Laura Bush, First Lady, US
3. Sonia Gandhi, President, Congress Party, India
2. Wu Yi , Premier, China
1. Condoleezza Rice, National Security Advisor, US

What really struck me is the number of countries with women presidents!
In addition to the two listed above:
Mary McAleese, Ireland
Chandrika Kumaratuga, Sir Lanka
Vaira Vike-Freiberga, Latvia
Tarja Honen, Republic of Finland

Need I say more?

Sending peaceful and powerful thought out to our world.....
