Presidents before. other countries have had female presidents and prime ministers. is it just now that its hillarys time and most likely shes going to be making an announcement within the next year or so? >> well, first of all, let me say i honor msnbc for adding another female voice to the weekend coverage. i think more women at the table and more women in the conversation is always a good thing. i agreed with that when i worked for hillary. but, yeah, i think whether its hillary or not, it doe...
