From recent past history, I would name Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy, daughter of Boston Mayor "Honey Fitz" Fitzgerald. Her children have shaped Boston politics and, in fact, American politics for the past 60 years. Her sons, President John Kennedy, Senator Robert Kennedy and Senator Edward Kennedy have made huge contributions, as well as notoriety, in our culture. Her daughters also have played positive roles in many ways. Eunice Kennedy Shriver founded the Special Olympics--worldwide & national, her late daughter Rosemary who was retarded, was their inspiration to organize it. Also, even her grandchildren have made contributions in several areas of American life. Rep. Joe Kennedy was a congressman from the same district as his Uncle Jack, Bobby Kennedy, Jr. is an environmental advocate, Edward Kennedy's son Patrick is a congressman from Rhode Island, and Kathleen Kennedy was Lt. Governor from Maryland, also Maria Shriver is the wife of Gov. Schwarznegger of California. Rose taught them good values & because of their wealth and standing, that all of the should give back to the country for all their blessings. Rose Kennedy ranks #1 in my book as being one of the most influential women in Bostonian history & American history.

Women empowerment made ladies to be leading in Politics in Massachusetts and Boston. Thus, there are already many lady senators and congresswomen. Hillary Clinton might be the first US President.
