Women in politics

Now that the new semester has begun and we are all back on the track, I would like you to return to your blogs and write something interesting again. This time, however, it's going to be on a less personal note.
There's been a lot of talk about women in politics recently. I assume you have done a 'FOR-AND-AGAINST' essay on quotas for women in your writing course. Instead, why don't you think of ONE female politician who you think has made a difference to the world - globally, nationally or locally. Try to avoid the standard 'song-of-praise' style. Present some basic facts about her, and add your personal comment on why you have chosen her out of many others. Try to make your post really interesting, so that we can learn something new and inspiring. Mind you that the women you choose may be either contemporary or historical - it's up to you. If you think hard enough, you may even find some intriguing female figures in Polish politics, too.
