Hillary Clinton in New Zealand

During an interview this week in New Zealand, the secretary of State says she won't run for president.

Guyon Espiner of TV New Zealand asked Hillary Clinton if the United States was ready for a woman president.

"Well, I hope so," she said.
"Could that be you?" Espiner asked.
"Not me, but it will be someone," Clinton said. "And it is nice coming to countries that have already proven that they can elect a woman to the highest governing positions that they have in their systems."
New Zealand and Australia, the next stop on Clinton's trip, have both elected female prime ministers in recent years. New Zealand's Helen Clark left office in 2008, and Australia's incumbent is Julia Gillard./Los Angeles Times


Since 19 November 2008, the Prime Minister of New Zealand is John Key of the National Party.
New Zealand is  one of the few countries in the world to have had two female prime ministers.
