La Lioness Priyanka

I know 2016 is far ahead [View all]

but i was thinking of people likely to run for office and am having trouble finding women presidential candidates

I totally see Cory Booker, Deval Patrick, Martin O'Malley & Antonio Villaraigosa as potentials

I really wished Gillibrand would do something that got her national attention

I sincerely don't think HRC will run

Does anyone have any female candidates on their radar?
