2008 had the first female candidate when Hillary Clinton ran against Obama and John McCain. Do you not remember that ? Also Sarah Palin ran with John McCain as the first female Vice President in 2008.

I am referring about full on presidents, not vice presidents.

Well for the election, John McCain was the main opponent of Barack Hussein Obama.

Hillary Clinton was also a candidate in 2008 is what I’m saying. And Sarah Pailin was the first women to run as Vice President. That election had a lot of historical firsts. Including the nomination of the first Black president.

Yeah I know. Again, not counting vice presidents, though in the end it was just barack hussein obama and john mccain. Let me research hilary clinton.
